and Katie Crutchfield (of Waxahatchee) on Noisey Acoustics. I just wrote down the chords 
Katie plays the F-chord with the A switched out to a B, making it more of a 
Fadd11+-chord...? (Don't quote
me on that). To make things easier, I'll write a simple "F" and you can make up your own 
mind whether
you want to put in the add11. The Fadd11 sounds a bit more dissonant by itself, but 
works out _really_ well
while playing it (as you might've noticed in the youtube video).

Break the glass, kill that girl, swallow two, you tell me
