song with some pretty interesting chords.\r\ni worked out the main 8 chords on piano from the song intro, and most of the song is built around this,\r\nbut then there are a few extra chords, especially near the end of the song.\r\n\r\nthe chord changes are weird because they often change after the end of one lyric,\r\nlisten to the song to know for sure when to change chords,\r\n\r\nno strumming pattern because the song has no guitar, but try for yourself and see what works.\r\ntip: transpose the chords down by -1 and put a capo on 1 for an easier way of playing it\r\n\r\n\r\n[Intro] \r\n(one strum each, each chord is 1 bar)\r\n\r\n[ch]Db[/ch] [ch]Ab[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Cm[/ch]\r\n\r\n[ch]Db[/ch] [ch]Ab[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch]
