Guided by Voices - Echoes Myron guitar chord

#

From: jeffnmoe@MCS.COM (jeffnmoe)

'Echoes Myron' by Guided by Voices

from the album 'Bee Thousand'

The guitars are tuned a little sharp on this one, but not enough

to use a capo. Twist your pegs up until that opening G

sounds right.

This is how my aged ears heard the song, but I'm not totally

confident about the chords at the end...sometimes its hard to

hear through that lo-fi production...corrections are welcomed.
