Brother Do You Know The Road - Hiss Golden Messenger Chords
Chords: Enjoy!, Gm, F, C, Eb, G
More chords by Hiss Golden Messenger
Genre: folk, rock, indie
These are the chords in standard tuning with no capo.
The chords become a lot easier with a capo on the third fret (transpose down
three), and that's
how they usually play it in the live shows I've seen! Chords are also pretty
simple with the guitar tuned
down a whole step (transpose up two), so that's another option.
Try pairing the Gm with a Gm7 here and there for some flair!
Enjoy!
