View Guitar Chords for This could be love - chords ver. 2
This is a acoustic version of Alkaline Trio's "This Could Be Love". You can play the standard chords but I would suggest to add a high B & E note (string 5 & 6)to every chord (exept for the F#m). Play the chords like this: C#m (x46600) Aadd9 (002200) F#m (2442xx) B (x24400) E (024400) Feel free to comment or correct! Have fun!
