Live. Love. LIGHTS.
Here's the song "My Boots" by LIGHTS. It's one of her more recent tracks. All of the
chords up here are OK, but I played around with chord arrangements and my capo and created
an arrangement that was much more accurate. Here it is.
CAPO 12. This may be a bit difficult for some people. My capo can reach fret 12, but I'm
not sure what kind of capo you might have. LOL.
There are five chords that I use for this song. Two of them are your average C and Em
chords. The rest is as follows:
F F* C*
e-----3-------|
B-1---1-------|
D-2---2-------|
G-3---3----2--|
B-x--------3--|
E-x--------x--|
VERSE 1
F F*
You might know if you're from around here
C C*
What goes on for half of the year
F F*
Have you seen the queen of the castle?
C C*
Paint this city from ear to fear
F F*
If the air was meant to be glitter
C C*
It might not take all yours away
F F*
When she swings she's a heavy hitter
C C*
When she comes you'll ask her to stay

Something in the way she comes gliding

Stop and stare!
