Slowly Sinking


From 4ft's first album 'At Your Convenience'. All credit to Edd Duthie and Matt Carver-Smith. Matt. KEY: / - slide from chord to chord/ note to note With the weird 6 chords, etc x 4 you play the normal like, D# chord but kinda mute the middle string, using your index finger seems to work best, but hey see what works for you! Enjoy!
