The Past Six Years Chords & Tabs
CAPO ON 4TH FOR THE RECORD
CAPO ON 6TH FOR THIS ACOUSTIC VERSION: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRyDtuohpww -
this tab is slightly more based on that version and how I play it and is better if
you want to play it by yourself or with a chord accompaniment:)
Pick the intro and the verses, but as soon as you get to this chord - 320130 which
is E7+9 you start strumming and strum the chorus too.
The chord E7+9 (in the lyrics) lands on "eve" in the first verse and "else" in the
second verse just so timing is put into perspective and all.
Saw the other tabs and chords and thought they needed a bit of work, but just
comment if you have any improvements/suggestions, hope you enjoy:)
