CAPO: 2nd fret (Sounds in the key of A)
Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
G = 320003 Gsus2 = 3x0233 Dsus4 = 200233
G9 = 320203 Cadd9 = x32033 G/B = x20033
C/G = 3x2013 Csus2 = x30033 Gsus4 = 320013
G6 = 3x2003 C = x32013 Cmaj7 = x32003
G5 = 3x0033 D = 200232 Cmaj7sus6 = x32203
The chords above are the ones Gretchen uses live. You could play the G5
as a power chord as on the record (355xxx), but the way Gretchen plays
the G5 makes it a much smoother transition to the C chords. She also
breaks the G5 riff up by playing an occasional open bottom E,
and sometimes hammering on an E on the 4th string, (as in the intro)
which in both cases makes it a passing G6. The Gsus2 is something
Gretchen plays live on her acoustic, but is only subtly suggested on
the record, as the G5 power chord on electric guitar dominates the mix.
Gretchen doesn't play the Dsus4's in the live video, but these are heard
in the studio recording and add more interest.

[Verse 3]
G5
The lady in the blue Sedan,
G5 Cadd9 Csus2 Cadd9 Csus2
Combs her hair and steals a glance at me,
G5 Gsus2 G5 Gsus2
Who is she?
G5
Does anybody hold her tight,
G5 Cadd9 Csus2 Cadd9 Csus2
Or does she spend her days and nights at home,
G5 Gsus2 G5 Gsus2 G5
All a - lone?
[Verse 4]
D Dsus4 D
And over in the passing zone,
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G/B Cadd9
All wrapped up in - side their own day - dreams,
C G G9 Gsus4 G
They're waiting for the light to turn ...green,
D Dsus4 D
Do they wonder who I am?
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D G/B Cadd9
Do they know I'm not some damn ma - chine?
C G5
Waiting for the light to turn ...green!
