Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This song definitely utilizes two guitars, but this chart sounds 99% close to me.
The C* riff that repeats in the first verse is played by hammering back and forth on the A string
between the C chord (x30033) and a G/B (x20033).
You can simply play power chords if you wish; I prefer to only utilize them in the heavier parts.
Tuned to Eb; all chords relative to standard tuning. The full chords are:
G - 320033
G/F# - 200033
C - x30033
G/B - x20033
F - 133211
