For Reasons Unknown


I believe this song is tuned to drop D, but I'm going to show you how to play it out of tuning. The key to me sounds like A flat / G Sharp. Anyway, here's how I play it. listen to the song for the rhythm and timing changes, I'm just showing you the chords to in the order.. Rift A "I packed my case..." A flat, E flat, B flat --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --------8-----------------| --6-----6-----8-----------| --4-----------6-----------| Break A "...for reasons unknown" (only the first time) A flat --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --6-----------------------| --4-----------------------| Rift A (Again) "I caught my stride..." A flat, E flat, B Flat --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --------8-----------------| --6-----6-----8-----------| --4-----------6-----------| Rift B "But my heart, it don't beat..." C, A flat, E flat, B flat --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --5---------8-------------| --3----6----6-----8-------| -------4----------6-------| Rift C "For reasons unknown..." E flat, D, C, B flat --------------------------| --------------------------| --------------------------| --8-----7-----5-----3-----| --6-----5-----3-----1-----| --------------------------| And that's it.. repeat as the song goes. I again, i think this may sound better if you to drop d and hit the D#/E flat lower on the fretboard, but i think it sounds fine played fifth string. Playing it this way also sounds pretty good with full chords on the acoustic.
