View Guitar Chords for Stonehenge - chords ver. 1
<< STANDARD TUNING >>> Another song from musical comedy duo, Ylvis! Once again, they use some very interesting chords progressions and transitions. I was originally going to make this tab with the guitar tuned down half a step so you can hit the low Eb (D#) note during the verse chords, but I think most people would prefer a standard tuning version. Regardless, I have included a Bonus Intro section at the bottom of the tab for those feeling ambitious enough to play it a half step down. ;) There are a lot of subtle chord variations throughtout the songs (like sus2 sus4 6 maj7b5). You can always simplify the chord and use a regular major/minor chord if you find them to be too cumbersome. As always, listen to the song while playing with the tab to get the timing down! ------------------------------- CHORDS USED IN INTRO AND VERSES Gm (3xx333) Gsus2 (3xx233) G5 (3xx033) D#maj7 (xx1333) D#maj7b5 (xx1233) D#maj7* (xx1033) ------------------------------- **If you want an easier variation, just use Gm and D#maj7 for intro and verses** (Or you can omit using the G5 and D#maj7*) ------------------------------------------------------ Stonehenge - Ylvis INTRO | Gm Gsus2 | Gm Gsus2 G5 | | D#maj7 D#maj7b5 | D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj7* | VERSE 1My Gmlife is so sucGsus2cessful G5 I've got Gmeverything a Gsus2man couldG5 D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj* ever need.Got a Gm1000 dollar Gsus2haircut G5 And I Gmeven have a Gsus2talk show G5on D#maj7 D#maj7b5 | D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj7* TVAnd I Cmknow I should be happyDm, but inD#stead There's a Gmquestion I can't get out of my Fsus4head.

As you can see they use all sorts of music tricks by using chords from different keys. You can make some of the chords more complex to better match the piano if you'd like, though the chords I used above should provide just enough flavor making the song overly difficult. <<**BONUS SECTION**>> Tune guitar half a step down and play the following for the intro (let the notes ring): eb|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|--4----4-----4----4-----4----4----4----4----4----4----4----4----4-----4----4----4--| Gb|--4----4-----3----3-----4----4----3---------4----4----3----3----4-----4----3-------| Db|----------6----------------------------6----------------------------------------6--| Ab|---------------------6---------------------------------------------7---------------| Eb|--4---------------------4-------------------0-------------------0------------------| Then play the rest of the song as normal but shift each chord one half step up (one fret).
