That I love you. 

*  Fadd11 is used as a passing tone, hammer your pinky onto an A# and then 
immediately release back into F. Chord shape for Fadd11 is simply:
-1-
-1-
-3-
-3-
-0-
---

** the D5 of the break is used as a passing tone, just release your fingers from 
the C/G shape and pick the A and D strings.  Part is so fast that it won't be 
noticeable and sounds correct in the context.


Note concerning chord shapes:
As with many of Folk musicians, Langhorne Slim uses a slight variation in chord 
shapes. The chords will usually feel like they are shaped like C, that is:
-0-
-1-
-0-
-2-
-3-
-0-

To form an F Chord, all you would have to do would be to move your 2 fingers from 
the D and A Strings to the G and D strings, and mute (or don't play) the E 
strings. So F would be formed like this:
---
-1-
-2-
-3-
-0-
---

similarly, G would be played like this:
-3-
-0-
-0-
-0-
-2-
-3-

Note that your pinky is on the high G.  

Another note is that for this song, Langhorne plays C with the added 5th, so just 
keep your pinky like its playing G and your good to go.

The final chord of this song is C/G, the G is the lower G, not the higher one, so 
the chord would be:
-0-
-1-
-0-
-2-
-3-
-3-

This is the same shape of C/G used in the break section.


Forming these chords is far easier then explaining how to :], but I hope this 
helped some people who are new to folk chord shapes.
