So this is the mostly barre chord version of The Gates,
i believe it is how jimmy plays it, or atleast pretty close.
Might be a few mistakes or there could be a different chord right before it
goes back into the verse, i'm not sure. this is might first tab soo..
anyways, if you want this to be easier just play them as regular open chords
(won't sound as much like the song though) but for A** use the regular A chord position
and move it up to the fourth fret.
Enjoy! and rate this however good you think it is!
