Cure For Optimism


Chords: E5 [022x00] Cmaj7 [x32000] Gadd6 [320000] A [x02220] G [320003] Ten years and no tab? I had to do it! The chords not listed above are standard position E shape barre chords. Basically, the verse is 1x each on the E5 and the Cmaj7 and 2x on the Gadd6. The F leading into the chorus is 2x. The G in the chorus is [320003] the first time and an E shape barre chord the second time for continuity's sake. I like to play the A as [x02220]. Please correct me if you think I've got something wrong!
