House For Sale Chords & Tabs
There's not necessarily an exact way to pick out the
chords in the song; just whatever you feel sounds right.
I like to think it's something like this:
C F Em G
e|-------------|-------1-------|---------------|-------|
B|-----1-------|---------1---1-|-------0-------|-------|
G|-------0---0-|-----2-----2---|---------0---0-|-------|
D|---2-----2---|---3-----------|-----2-----2---|-------|
A|-3-----------|-0-------------|---2-----------|---0-2-|
E|-------------|---------------|-0-------------|-3-----|
