I love this song and wanted to just strum along basically to it, but the chords I
find online are just not correct so I'm having a go myself. This is my first
Chord chart and I'm a drummer not a guitarist - so here goes.
Capo on 1st Fret
Verse : most of the chords are played for 2 beats in the bar:
Chord | Dm Am | Gm Dm | F C | Bb Dm |
Bass | D C | Bb D | F C | D D |
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/cardigans/explode_crd_ver_2.html ]
Chord | Dm Am | Gm Dm | F C | Bb Dm C |
Bass | D C | Bb D | F C | Bb D E|
Chorus: The C chord in bars 4 and 8 are bars of 2/4 and then revert back to 4/4
Chord | F | C | Dm C# | C |
Bass | F | E | D C# | C |
Chord | F | C | Dm C# | C |
Bass | F | E | D C# | C |
Chord | Bb | Am | I think I hear an influence of the Dm at the last
Bass | Bb | A | beat of bar
That's my take on it - I think it's closer than other versions I have seen -
particularly the chorus.
