Artist: The Verve
Track: Sonnet
Album: Urban Hymns
Submitted by: Rikki Starrett
Here's a great track from The Verve, from the Album
"Urban Hymns".
I decided to do this song as the quality of the ones
already on UG isn't that great (The Chord Versions), and as with all my
contributions I've kept it nice and simple so anyone
can play it. Enjoy!
It's worth pointing out that in the chorus, when changing from
F to G, slide up the F to the 3rd fret (Written "/G") rather than playing
an open G chord as it sounds much better this way.
Chords Used:
C----- X32010
G----- 320003
Em---- 022000
F----- X33211
Gmaj-- 355433
Am---- X02210 (once)
