You Get Me Lost

Set #1

Alert reader Andrew McGowan sends the following modified tabs for this song; having observed Freedy at a show, he said this version is closer to what is actually played. Again, I have no skills here, so I'm leaving both up in case they're both useful.

Andrew says: The chords are spelled out as they would sound in standard tuning, but Freedy capos at the second fret to play it in the proper key.

Set #2

These tabs were put together by Norman Joseph , who warns, "No warranties expressed or implied,"
But in my (non-guitar-playing and thus questionably valued) opinion? He's just being modest.

Whatever the case, big thanks to Norman for sharing.

Another generous tab contributor, Jeffrey Shulberger, offered the following note on these tabs:

Freedy plays this in F# with all the strings tuned down a half-step. He then uses G, F, C and D just like the other tab on the site.

You may only use this for private study, scholarship, or research.

Written by Freedy Johnston.




Try these chords for the verse (G, F, C, F).
Just keep your pinky on the "G" for all three chords:
