Restless Moon


Song: Restless Moon Artist: Nick 13 Album: Self Titled Back with another. This is the 5th track off of Nick 13's long anticipated solo country album. Very upbeat and fun song to play. Very simple format and very simple chord progression. The chord names and frets are NOT relative to the capo. Reason is, for those who don't have a capo, they can play the regular barre chords if they want. I learned through the capo, which is why it's tabbed out this way. Strums are not exact. Listen for the changes. LETS GO!!! Key of Ab. CAPO ON THE FIRST FRET if you have one. *****FRETS AND CHORD NAMES ARE NOT RELATIVE TO CAPO. FRETS ARE LISTED AS IF IT'S NOT THERE**** Two guitars in this. Nick just plays basic I,IV,V open chords which are listed below Ab Db Eb Db Ab/Absus4/Ab e|--0-----|-------|---3--|-----|---0--0--0------| B|--0-----|---2---|---4--|--2--|---0--2--0------| G|--0-----|---0---|---3--|--0--|---0--0--0------| D|--0-----|---3---|------|--3--|---0--0--0------| A|--3-----|---4---|------|--4--|---3--3--3------| E|--4-----|-------|------|-----|---4--4--4------| INTRO (lead): e|----------------------|--------------------------|-------------| B|-------------/4---4-4~|--4---4h6--4---4h6--6-6~--|-6--6h8--6---| G|----5--6-----/5---5-5~|--5---5h6--5---5h6--6-6~--|-6--6h8--6---| D|--6----6--------------|--------------------------|-------------| A|----------------------|--------------------------|-------------| E|----------------------|--------------------------|-------------| e|--------------------------------------------4---| B|-6/8--8-8--8\6--6--6/8--6---6\4-----4-----------| G|-6/8--8-8--8\6--6--6/8--6---6\5-----5-----------| D|------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------| VERSE 1(lead) Nick plays the chord progression I listed above.
