Extraordinary by Mandy Moore
Extraordinary
Tuning: Standard
Basically the whole song is in D Major. For the intro and verses, strum a D chord and
at the end of each measure they play G-G-G-G-D-Dsus2 then back to D. For the chorus, it
from a G to an A chord.

The solo's short, and not too hard, it took me a while to figure out, but I'm almost
this is it.

Then the "bridge" after the solo is the same chords as the chorus. Then the chorus a
times and you're done.
Well thats how I play it. One more thing; on the verses I'm pretty sure he slides up to
E chord at some point(move the D chord up two frets) but not exactly sure where or when.
you can mess around with that if you want, i think it sounds fine either way.
