Gomez - Sound Of Sounds guitar chord
Sound of Sounds - GOMEZ
Album: In Our Gun
This song uses open G tuning with a capo at the third fret,
if you think it's too much of a pain in the ass to
change from standard to open G, it really isn't so
it is worth trying it out. At the end of the tab is a short
explanation about how to easily tune to open G from standard.
open G tuning - (D-B-G-D-G-D)
String number (1-2-3-4-5-6)
Chords used (relative to capo at third):
Bb D#/G F G# Cm
0 0 0 3 (2)
0 1 3 1 1
0 0 2 2 2

0 0 2 X 2
0 2 X (3) X
(play the bracketed notes if you can, but I don't think they're essential)
The placement of the chords over the words isn't exact, so you'll have to listen
to it to get the exact timing of chord changes. In some places when the Bb D#/G
chords are played next to each other they are swapped over a few times, not just
played one then the other, just listen to it and you'll get the idea as I'm
pretty damn sure that these chords are right, or at least very close to right
as Gomez have probably used some other fucked up alternative tuning.
Do you ever stop and wonder

Where you'd be without her? until it hits the next chord, listen
to it and you'll know what I mean)

Outro
Bb D#/G over and over
How to tune to open G easily.
Tune your sixth string done to D by comparing it to the fourth string, ie Dropped D
Then tune the fifth string to the fifth fret of the sixth string.
Then tune the first string to the Third fret of the Second String.
so the second thirs and fourth strings don't need to be changed,
Too Easy,
Enjoy
