Hurt - Johnny Cash Chords
Chords: Am7, Fadd9, C, G, Am, D, F
More chords by Johnny Cash
Genre: country, folk, singer-songwriter
high e string fretted with your pinky. This makes the chords G major, Am7, Fadd9, and C major. I also
suggest playing a Hendrix Fadd9, so wrap your thumb and play 1st fret low E string:
Am7 x-0-2-2-1-3
Fadd9 1-x-3-2-1-3
C x-3-2-0-1-3
G 3-x-0-0-0-3
The strum pattern for Intro/Verse/Transition is picked for the downs and strummed for the ups.
I suggest picking the A and D strings, and then up strum.
