Fever - The Tragic Thrills
The guitar part is fairly easy but the timing can be tricky
and it's a bit difficult to keep on-rhythm if doing it solo (no backing band / beat).
Capo: 1
Chords:
C G Am
e:| 0 e:| 1 e:| 0
B:| 1 B:| 1 B:| 1
G:| 0 G:| 2 G:| 2
D:| 2 D:| 3 D:| 2
A:| 3 A:| 4 A:| 0
E:| x E:| x E:| 0
The basic chord progression is C-G-Am / Am-G-C, however the G isn't played like a chord.
It's simply a filler (transition) between the Am and C.
Listen to the song to understand what I mean.
