Mason Jennings – Grow Old With Me chords
Chords:
As with all Mason I'm familiar with, all strings are dropped one half step. In addition, drop the 6th string another step like drop D tuning. You'll end up with C#/G#/C#/F#/A#/D#. Finally, capo on 2nd fret. The D and E minor chords use all six strings, striking 6th string first as a base note and then striking the higher note strings in a sort of down down up up down up pattern where the first two down strikes are the base note. When you play the E minor chord, add your index finger to the second fret of the 6th string to round it out since you're in drop D. I think there's also a little flourish of some sort on the D chords in the chorus, but I can't figure out what it is. Listen to the song and let me know if you get it. This is my first tab, so any feedback is appreciated.
