Richard Coury Chords & Tabs
Hey folks,
I love this band and I love this song and its meaning.
I think that the few tabs available aren't any good at all.
I don't claim that my suggestion is 100% correct but definetely more fitting than
the other versions you'll find.
Other tabbers out there, no offense, I appreciate your work. ;)
Alright, so we go with standard tuning, strumming pattern is easy to figure
out, just play along with the album version.
PS.: for the Em I like to play Em7, sounds nice as well...
