Seasick Steve - Treasures chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
A very minor-key sad blues ballad!! From the 2011 album You Canīt Teach An Old Dog New Tricks. Although it opens on Dm, it closes on the chord of Dm/C, so it just hangs there unresolved, adding to the melancholy. Notes ===== Verse ===== on the Dm / Dm C sections. Roll on and off the open top E string to F on the first fret. Like so.... E ---1--p0-h1----1--p0-h1--| B ---3---3-------3---3-----| G ---2---2-------2---2-----| D -0-----------------------| A --------------3----------| E -------------------------| Refrain ======= Little chromatic run on the E string, A to Ab to G, then G to G# to the Am chord (all marked down below) OK here we go!
