PRIVATE EDUCATION
Written by Josh Pyke
4 beats per chord Left Channel guitar plays basic chords
Tune down one whole tone Right Channel guitar adds the extensions
in parentheses for two beats
TUNING: 6 5 4 3 2 1
D G C F A D
The final Em chord (very familiar) confirms the tuning.
The string scrape slides between the C and A chords confirm that barre
forms are used. Both chords share the E-note which can be left open on
the 1st-string making the moving extensions very easy to finger.
