Transcribed by Gerald Audenis ([email protected]) With a little help from Edmond Hum ([email protected]) First, I definitely think that the Cardigans use a Capo on the second fret, and that the key of "Carnival" is E. Basically, if you play "Carnival" in E, you will use the following chords: Chords ------ 1) near the capo As you can see, the first chord is a strange F#m maybe 7 or 9, I don't know, but it sounds exactly like in "Carnival". The chords 4,5 and 6 are the bossa-style chords that are so hard to catch on "by my door, waiting for you".
