Mac Demarco - Ode To Viceroy

Please note that this isn't mean't to be exactly the same as the original song,
It's how I play it on acoustic guitar. It doesn't fit the melody, it does fit the lyrics.
Capo 2 is the best way to go if you want it to sound like the original. I prefer Capo 5.
Just place the capo where ever you want it to be and enjoy!

Viceroy,
             Cmaj7-Cadd9   C   G
early in the morning
                       Cmaj7-Cadd9   C   G

               Cmaj7-Cadd9  C    G

headin' for the corner,

I'm only tryin to calm down,

headin' for the corner,
                  Cmaj7-Cadd9  C   G
I'm leavin' it to you
