Tabbed by Daan Bijdevaate 24/09/2008 email: bijdaan AT hotmail.com A really nice song by Joe Henry. These chords are based on his 'Civilians' album and a video, in which he does this song acoustic. Am x02210 Am/G# 4x2210 (or 4x22xx *1) Am/G 3x2210 Am/F# 2x2210 F 133211 G 320033 C/G 332010 E7 020100 Dm xx0231 *1 The Am/G# could give you some problems to play. Use your pinky to play the G# (4), it! You can also play this chord simplified like: 4x22xx Use your ring finger for the G# (4) and your index finger , barred, for the two '2', the and a notes. You can mute the A string (the first x) with your ringfinger and the other 'x' with your index finger. If you chose this way to play it, you might want to play the Am/G and Am/F# in that simplified way. That makes: Am/G 3x22xx Am/F# 2x22xx Use your middlefinger for the G and your thumb for the F# (2). You leave your index finger unchanged, like the Am/G# as shown above.
