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!!
