Brilliant 'new' song that may appear on 'Blackhole', as played on the European dates of his 2014 tour - not a
tab from any studio recording, as none are (currently) publicly available!
Listen to the live version here: https://ia601401.us.archive.org/11/items/RA_2014-09-21/ra_2014-09-21_t12.mp3
Fairly confident the E in the verse is an Em7.
Also hard to be sure from the live recordings if the D in the pre-chorus is a D or a Dsus2.
The D in the verse is like C chord shape but moved up 2 frets - technically an Em9 with no 5th!! - see the
chords below.
