• Song:

    Cure For Optimism

  • Artist:

    Porcupine Tree

Chords:

E5     [022x00]
Cmaj7  [x32000]
Gadd6  [320000]
A      [x02220]
G      [320003]

Ten years and no tab? I had to do it!

The chords not listed above are standard position E shape barre chords.
Basically, the verse is 1x each on the E5 and the Cmaj7 and 2x on the Gadd6.
The F leading into the chorus is 2x. The G in the chorus is [320003] the
first time and an E shape barre chord the second time for continuity's sake.
I like to play the A as [x02220].

Please correct me if you think I've got something wrong!

Outside a path to knowledge
Inside a waste of cells
A serpent with a mobile phone
Sweet talks me

Steel bars and a doctor's note
Don't give up
They can plead and beg but don't let them fix your head
