Charmer
from "Charmer" ( 2012)
Note - this song has a pretty typical series of open-chord style walking-chord
changes but is played with barred-power chords instead giving it a unique sound.
Use power chords!
G E C
When you’re a charmer
G E F C
the apples fall
G F# E
and you’re quite the little collector
D C
you got ‘em all
G E C
When you’re a charmer
G E F C
people respond
G F# E
they can’t see the hidden agenda
D C - keyboard riff
you got going on

E C G F#* (bar 2nd fret E and A strings)
But when you’re weak it’s the Holy Grail
E C G F#*
you’re two for one, it’s a fire sale
E C G F#*
and that’s a wall that you cannot scale
E C G F#*
so you’re forced to burrow under
G E C
When you’re a charmer
G E F C
the world applauds
G F# E
they don’t know that secretly charmers
D C
feel like they’re frauds
G E C
When you’re a charmer
G E F C
you hate yourself
G F# E
a victim of sideshow hypnosis
D C
like everyone else
E C G F#*
and then your thinking goes black and white
E C G F#*
and you’re all hunger and appetite
E C G F#*
this is a battle you cannot fight
E C G F#*
no, you only can surrender
E C G F#*
no, you only can surrender
