      +84iamwhatiam
      It'll have mistakes, but this should give you some ideas for how to make the
      inversions and licks:
      Verse:
      C Em Dm E/C Dm G C G7
      Chorus:
      F C F Dm (or?Am) |C F C Em- |G F (Em) G Dm |C G (Dm) C C7

    • @ryancarey916
      @ryancarey916 8 років тому +2

      +84iamwhatiam It's still not the licks, but this is slightly improved:
      # Notes
      - With the Em7-Dm7 transition, you usually also include an Ebm7 on the way, playing all three chords in Am shape, descending from the 7th to 5th frets.
      - C9: -32330
      - C7: -32310
      - the bridge more similar to a chorus than a verse though there are some variations
      # Verse
      C G7 F C, Em7 Dm7* G C G7
      C G7 F C, Em7 Dm7* G C G7
      C Em F C, Em7 Dm7* G C G7
      C Em F C, Em7 Dm7* G C9 C7
      # Chorus
      F C/F F C/Dsusm
      C G7 C C#/A7
      G F/G G Gsus
      C C/F C C9 (or C G G C G)
