This is the chords to 51st State of America from
the briliant White Coats EP and various other recordings.
This is basically very easy!! *Which probably explains how I figured it
out!!!*
The chords are G Am F all the way through. However to get the NMA
sound the verses must be played using barre chords.
G Am F
-----3--------------5-------------1--------
-----3--------------5-------------1--------
-----4--------------5-------------2--------
-----5--------------7-------------3--------
-----5--------------7-------------3--------
-----3--------------5-------------1--------
The changes are
G Am f
Look out of you're window watch the sky......
etc
Then for the chorus, the same chord progression is played but reverted
to basic chord formtion, i.e. major chords for a fuller sound with
more bass.
I play them like this
G Am F
-------3---------0-------1--------
-------3---------1-------1--------
-------0---------2-------2--------
-------0---------2-------3--------
-------2---------0-------3--------
-------3---------0-------0--------
Changes are
G Am f
This is the 51st state of AmericA
etc
Listen to the song. It helps immemsely.
It sounds cool!!
