See My Friends – The Kinks
Nghệ sĩ: The Kinks
Hợp Âm Chuẩn
Song: See my friends
Artist: The Kinks
Composer: Ray Davies
Tabbed by DJ ('DiddyD' at ultimateGuitar.com) 15th Jan 2013
The song was inspired by a trip to India, and also the tragic death
of Ray Davies' sister.
DROPPED TUNING: D#-G#-C#-F#-A#-D#
I think on the original single version the guitars are all tuned a
half-step down from standard tuning (maybe it was in standard pitch,
but the backing tracks were slowed down before the vocals were added)
I'm sure this is not the way the Kinks played it, but I think it
works well when you only have one guitar to accompany yourself.
To try and emulate the Indian feel of the droning strings,
slide the shape for the D6sus2/E up two frets for the E7sus2 chords.
The names sound very complicated, but a lot of the chord shapes I've
selected are relatively similar and are simple moveable chords.
NOTE: Please IGNORE ANY POP-UP CHORD BOXES the website might
automatically suggest and use the typed shapes shown below:
The chords are named as if still in standard tuning:
= 022100 = 077700 = x24430
= 022200 = x99700 = 022130
= 057700 E6sus2/4 = x44200 = 577600
= 079900 = 799800
