Enchanting Ghost Chords & Tabs
this is from sufjan's all delighted people ep-- its not as complicated as it
sounds because what im posting is just the main guitar part and parts of the
second guitar part-- which is supplemented on the album with a few other
guitars and a banjo i believe
guitar 1 is all finger picked in a simple pattern with just alternating
thumb and index finger-- also use your index finger on your fret hand to
hold down the high e and B strings on the first fret at the same time
hope this all makes sense
main guitar:
e-------------1----------1----------1----------1-|

e-------------1----------1----------1----------1-------------|
B--------1----------1----------1----------1------------------|
G----------2----------2----------2----------2----------------|
D------------------------------------------------------------|
A-----2----------2----------2----------2---------<-----------| theres an occasional
E------------------------------------------------ --0p2---| pull off here
on the A string
^this carries through the whole song, including chorus
here's some of the second guitar's parts:
during this line and the one after it
guitar one:
e-------------1----------1----------1----------1-|
B--------1----------1----------1----------1------|
G----------2----------2----------2----------2----|
D------0----------0----------0----------0--------|
A------------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------------|
guitar two does this:
e------------------------5---3---1----3---------------|
B-----------------------------------3----3-3----1-3-1-|
G-----------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------|
one final thing i'll share is the little slide heard occasionally during the
verse-- it goes like this:
e---------------8s7---5s3-----------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------|
good luck with all this-- its the first tab i did completely without other
sources so yeah-- also it isn't meant to be a walk through every note in
the song so just take whats here and work with it in your own way
ps-- the other guitar parts are pretty easy too even though i didnt post
them-- for example the electric guitar part can be easily played on the high
e and b strings alone-- again good luck
