Please IGNORE ANY POP-UP CHORD BOXES the website
might automatically suggest and use the typed shapes
shown below:
The funk guitar part is mainly a couple of chords, but it
really needs someone else playing the full progression
along with it. It's played mainly on the top 3 strings,
so it depends on how accurate and clean you hit the strings
as to whether you fret more than those strings and play them
as full or partial barre chords.
For Verses 1 & 2 Nile just stays on the Am7 throughout,
the keyboards slip in the passing Em7.
Funk rhythm chords:
(Am7) = x-x-x-5-5-5 or x-0-5-5-5-5 or 575555
(Em7) = x-x-9-7-8-7 or x-7-9-7-8-7
(Em7 *) = x-x-9-7-8-10 or x-7-9-7-8-10
[Chorus funk pattern]
