Ever since I saw Brooke playing this live and noticed that she was playing it
differently to what I had learned it bothered me, and one day (I can't remember
how, I think I was just browsing Youtube) I found this video of a guy who showed
how to play it like she does. The E used (I looked this up to check the actual
name of the chords) isn't the same as the one I found which was pretty much an Em
with the e, B and G strings blocked, and technically it is just another way of
playing E as it uses the same notes, but it's played like a power chord would
usually be played. I wasn't sure about the G#5 or the F#5 so I just wrote them as
fifths since power chords seem to have a habit of that.
So here it is, Hosanna in power chords. Thanks to Jon Fletcher (who I learned it from) :]
