Ok, I play this song with a capo on the first fret and use the chords Em, D, C, B and Am in the verses and C, B, Am, G, and Em in the choruses. This seems to sound pretty close, but I think that Thurston Moore tunes his guitars flat (Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb). Anyways, this was close enough for me... ... It's your world you can change it. ___ Mountain Reader II - #Demo 001
