This song is fantastic! Fortunately the music is easy?leaving time to work on those
Phenomenal vocals?.!
The chord progression is :
E D C#m A
E|--0----2-----4------0--------------------------------------
B|--0----3-----5------2--------------------------------------
G|--1----2-----6------2--------------------------------------
D|--2----0-----6------2--------------------------------------
A|--2----0-----4------0--------------------------------------
E|--0----x-----0------0--------------------------------------
The little sorta submarine sound that?s played every now and again is just an E
note...best done on keyboard but guitar is fine obviously, (12th fret high E string)
Now this song has the violin bow playin? the guitar thing happening...its nothing
to be afraid of though..im fairly sure he just plays the root note of each chord on
the high E string:
E|--12------10------8------5---------------------------------
B|-----------------------------------------------------------
G|-----------------------------------------------------------
D|-----------------------------------------------------------
A|-----------------------------------------------------------
E|-----------------------------------------------------------
so if ya know someone with a spare bow give it a try!
That?s pretty much it..like most Sigur Ros songs the vocals are the focus so give
them a go too!
