• Song:

    Open Skies

  • Artist:

    David Crowder Band

This is tuned down 1/2 step.  Ive included the "skies interlude" cause it is the lead in to "open skies."  As always, this is not entirely perfect, itll give you the main idea of how it goes.

Skies Interlude:
--------------------------------------
-----------------------7--------------
--7/9-99-99-7/9-99-7--7---------------
--------------------------0-4-7p5p4p0-
--5/7-77-77-5/7-77-5------------------
--0-0-00-00-0-0-00--------------------

--7/9-99--7-7-7--7---------------
---------------------0-4-7p5p4p0-
--5/7-77--5-5-5------------------
--0-0-00-------------------------

You repeat that through the interlude.

Open Skies:

--0-5/7-7-5--0-2/3-3--0h5------------
-------------------------------------

edit: on the riff I cant play, he does some picking downward on the strings (a la lindsey buckingham style) on that chord.  If you can figure it our, or know anyone that can do it, please let me know how they play it.

You repeat that riff throughout the verse.

This is the bridge part: (and its so wonderful to be here now...)

Crowder strums those chords, thats the electric part, it sounds cool.  Repeat it as necassary.

Chorus(es):
G                  Dsus
Praise him under open skies
C
Everything breathing praising God
G         Dsus
In the company
C
Of all who love the king

The other choruses are the same progression: G Dsus C to the end.
There is no acoustic in the break down.

Chords
  G   Dsus  C
--3----3----3
--3----3----3
--0----2----0
--0----0----2
--2---------3
--3----------

All right, thats all.  Please feel free to e-mail me at mansonstinks2@aol.com if you have any questions or comments.
