More chords by Richmond Fontaine

Genre: indie rock, alternative, indie folk


Standard tuning
Capo 5th fret

The whole song he plays his chords with variations of the actual chord,

taking a finger off and

hammering on. It might not be exact but here is how I hear it, and sounds

pretty good. He doesn't

always do it, so just listen to the song and try to mimic it using variations

like these:
Em C G
e|----0--0-0-0------0-0-0-0-------3--3-3-3----|
B|----0--0-0-0------1-1-1-1-------0--0-0-0----|
G|----0--0-0-0------0-0-0-0-------0--0-0-0----|
D|----2--0-2-0------2-0-2-0-------0--0-0-0----|
A|----2--2-2-2------3-3-3-3-------2--0-2-0----|
E|----0--0-0-0------0-0-0-0-------3--3-3-3----|
