Anyones Ghost by The National
Anyones Ghost
Don't exactly know what to call the 4th chord but naming it B flat minor with a C#
just for the sake of it. Sounds like a suspended chord.
And I don't think they play the high E in the Abm actually but I like to
sometimes, do what you prefer.
Chords used:
Ebm: X643XX (X6887X) Bryce plays that shape during the bridge, I like to change between the two.
B: 7644XX
Abm: 466444
BbC#:6X46XX (The 4 on the A string is muted by the ring finger, that's why I X'd it)
F#: 244322
