¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
This is what I dug out from Nevada. The first two lines are fine...
But C#/E, C/Eb etc for the third and fourth lines?
If you try these chords, they sound pretty weird. C# with an E bass?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUGGESTION:
There are three things to try to combine. There is a drone on the 'A' note
through each chord which is important, there is a guitar climbdown and
there is a bass climbdown.
Try:
e|-----------------------
B|-8---8-7---7-6---6-5---
G|-9---9-8---8-7---7-6--- --(following the bass line)
D|-7---7-7---7-7---7-7--- --(both drone
A|-0---0-0---0-0---0-0--- -- on the 'A')
or add another string like this if you prefer it with a higher emphasis:
e|-9---9-8---8-7---7-5---
B|-8---8-7---7-6---6-5---
G|-9---9-8---8-7---7-6---
D|-7---7-7---7-7---7-7---
A|-0---0-0---0-0---0-0---
If you want that as chords it could be: [ A7 Adim Dm6 A ] played up around the
7th fret.
EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
x02020 x01313 x00201 x02220
A7 Adim Dm6 A
or as we said above:
EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
x07989 x07878 x07767 x07655
A7/E Adim/D# Dm6/D A/C#
That fits roughly both with what the guitar is playing as
its climbdown at the same time:
e|----5------5-------5-------
B|-8----8-7----7-6-----6-5---
G|-9----9-8----8-7-----7-6---
(that's in principle, the top A drone stretch can't easily be done on one guitar.)
and the bass climbdown on the bass A string (which is simplified but the idea is there):
A|-7-7--6-6--5-5--4-4--5-5--4-4--2-2--0-
I really think that line is almost beyond defining as chords as it works because
of the two climbdowns working together with the A.

If you try E with a C# bass it's almost right though I prefer these chorts :
Em7 B/D# Dm7 A/C#
you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand
Probably it was a slip up when it was typed in, cos' everything except this
line is Ok.
