Americas Suitehearts Acoustic Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

This is a part everyone gets wrong. Just play these chords back to back, and listen to

the song for the strumming pattern. You should be able to find it on YouTube if you

dont already have it. From here on out, this will be a chord chart you can easily

follow to play the song through. And YES, the second chord in the chorus IS AN F#m AND

 NOT Bm!!!

I CANT STRESS THAT ENOUGH!!! If you play Bm there, it makes the singer sound out of

tune. And we dont want the singer to sound off, do we? That would ruin the whole song!

Intro

Verse 1

 You could have Dknocked me out with F♯ma feather

DWhy, why, why won't the world rF♯mevolve around me?

Verse 2

(mute in between the B5 chords. Make it rhythmic. Play at the same time as the

words rhythm. Sometimes Patrick just plays the root of the chord on a single string,

rather than the whole thing)
