Gray street alternate chorus

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

Gray street alternate chorus

Unread post by pablortega » Fri Feb 27, 2004 4:51 pm

Hi all. I´m pretty new in the forum, but you have already helped my a lot.

I know that the tab in the page for grey street is right, but I've been playing the chorus in a different way, that I do believe is a lot easier because of the chords transtition. Here it goes, tell me what you think.

CHORUS

x___x____x____x
x___x____x____x
7___9___10___12
x___x____x____x
x___x____x____9
7___9___11____x

I love this song. One of dave´s best lyrics, adn the feeling he puts when he sings the chorus is amazing.

Cheers, P.

Thanks for the comments you all. As I said before, I know it might sound better with the well known chords, but for example for my type of voice it sounds better with this chords because of the high range I can hit.
everything but your last chord fits, that doesn't fit, cause its an Em, and its supposed to be a G, someone correct me if i'm wrong, but Em is G's relative minor, thats what might have made you wanna put it there
I updated the last chord, thanks for pointing this out DJR07
nothin wrong with experimenting around
Thanks for the support Matty Boom

Take care.

I play it this way, which is pretty much the same chords, but Dave-style.

Code: Select all

E:-------------------------
B:-------------------------
G:-7----6----7----4--------
D:-X----7----7----5--------
A:-X----X----5----X--------
E:-7----5---------3--------

Just another sidenote, but I assume you mean for that F# to be an G in that last chord.
