Playing Your Song Hole - Celebrity Skin Chords: (Std Tuning) C# A D Ab e: -9-- -5-- -10- -4-- B: -9-- -5-- -10- -4-- G: -10- -6-- -11- -5-- -+ D: -11- -7-- -12- -6-- |- most of song played on these strings A: -11- -7-- -12- -6-- |- can even use power E's and omit G string E: -9-- -5-- -10- -4-- -+ Notes: Since I got no response from my original post, I've decided to ditch the capo and go with bar chords, in hopes of hitting a different audience (rockers). With male vocals, I find playing this a step or 2 down sounds better to me. Since these are all E-form bars, you can easily play around with them to fit your style (ie, same formations, just move down a fret). Oh yeah, and pretty much slide between all chords! Riff: C# A e:----------------|-----5----------| B:-----9----------|---------5------| G:---------10-----|---6-------6----| D:---11--------11b|-------------7br| A:----------------|----------------| E:-9--------------|-5--------------| 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . Alt Riff: (I find this a little high pitch/gay for me. The song is also really fast, so I often play this. Basically, you can pick/strum anything in C# and A that goes low, mid, high, mid and it sounds good) C# A e:----------------|----------------| B:----------------|----------------| G:---------10-----|---------6------| D:-----11------11b|-----7-----7-7b-| (note: can also slide the bends up a A:-------------11b|-------------7b-| fret and quickly back) E:-9-9------------|-5-5------------| 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 .
