    Beneath Your Beautiful Intro

Beginner Guitarists:

  • The Intro can be played as:
    | D - E | G - A | D - E | G - A |
    In this case each chord has a duration of 2 beats:
    • | D - E | - 2 beats on D and 2 beats on E.
    • This could also be written as | D / E / |
  • Bars are sometimes used in the song charts. This always occurs during Intro's, Instrumentals, Outro's etc., to allow for accuracy in timing and chord duration — especially if you are counting each bar. This also occurs at the end of a bar where chords are played without lyrics. Bars are also added when there is an alternative 'feel' to the song, in this case - the end of the second chorus where there is some 'ad lib' going on.
  • Generally chords are placed directly over words where the chord change occurs on the word. Chords placed before a word means the chord is strummed before the word. The same applies to chords placed after a word. If you listen carefully as you play along, you will hear these changes.
