The Stone "chorded up"

Unread post by Maldito`Tuelho » Tue Jul 20, 2004 11:09 am

So, I've been able to play this song quite correctly, but I really suck when it comes to theory ( :roll: ). So I was thinking if you guys could help me by "chording" this song. I know the verse starts in Dm, and I`m preety sure about the chorus too (F, E, Dm, C) but I was thinking in recording it, and a good idea would be to do it with two guitars: one with the original riif and stuff, and the other just with the chords.

Thank you already :D :D

(oh, and sorry for my english, I haven't done classes of it in a long time so... :oops: )

hmm, for the chorus, I think I play F, Am, Dm, C.

for the verse, I've tried this before, and I got as far as Dm-Gm-Dm-C I think

the transition part "and if not I'll go..." could be an A minor

I'll help out by posting what fatjack is talking about:
if you really want to play the verse to the song using only chords here they are (in Dave style no less):

Dm
E: X
B: X
G: 10
D: 7
A: 8
E: 10

Gm
E: X
B: X
G: 3
D: 0 (yes an open string! ah!)
A: 1
E: 3

B flat

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

C
same as b flat just move up 2 frets

in order to play this properly you have to realize that the song has a 6/8 time signature and all four chords get a different amount of beats

Dm: 6 beats
Gm: 12 beats
B flat: 3 beats
C: 3 beats

thats it if you have any questions dont be afraid to ask
