This intro is almost as the one 13:

e/----------------------

B/----------------------

G/-----5-----7-10-12-9--

D/---5---7-8------------

A/-5--------------------

E/----------------------

In the song there are a few guitar fills:

GUITAR FILL 1:

e/-----------------

B/-----------------

G-4-4-4-6-11-9-----

GUITAR FILL 2:

e/-----------------

B/-12-10-9-5-------

G/-----------------

Graham play some strange chords during the verses. I saw the chords in

a

live gig that I recorded. But I'll write 13 after the chords. Here they

are

in the right order:

B13: (76x8xx)

A13: (54x6xx)

E: (022100)

G13: (32x4xx)

F: (133211)

A#13:(65x8xx)

C#: (x46664)

He doesn't play this order all the way during the song.

When you play the first two "13" chords then bend the G string a

little.

But I think he uses some sort of pedal that makes that "bending" sound.

Because he doesn't bend the G-string when he plays the song.

Do you go to the country?
