Guitar 2

Fmaj7      Cmaj7
e--0--     e--0--
B--1--     B--0--
G--2--     G--0--
D--3--     D--2--
A--0--     A--3--
E-----     E-----

These two chords repeat over and over for the first part.

It sounds good if you just do a slow strum at first and then
just finger pick your way through the chord for the remainder.

For the second part, just play along with guitar 1 only an ocatve lower

well, its ok . . .

still, I wouldn't mind the background music for another guitar


@superdoughboy4 (July 28, 2007 at 4:27 PM)

It's not bad. I just wish it was more harder to play and more complex as well as more defined in all the sounds that's being played. I also don't like how the fret goes up past 21. Lol But that's just me because my accoustin only has 20 and my First Act only has 21. Oh well.


@gibson (July 29, 2007 at 2:18 AM)

The root note of the first chord is an F, but the chord itself is not an Fmaj7. The order of notes of the first chord are supposed to be F,C,F,A,D,E (Fmaj7 does not include a D). I'm not quite sure what chord that is though. Second chord was also close. It's a Cmaj7add9(I know cuz I'm staring at the sheet music right now) And I have no idea how to finger that chord . . .


@Kabukibear (July 29, 2007 at 1:31 PM)

The closest thing I can think of for that first chord is an Fmaj7add13. You can't play it on a guitar as it's written here though, because it would be a second inversion with the F still in the bass, so basically,

e--0--
B--3--
G--2--
D--3--
A--3--
E--1--

and unless you have an extra finger, since there's nothing to bar, you can't play it. Unless you can manage to get your thumb around to that low F but I can't on mine.

I would strum it

Fmaj7add13     Cmaj7add9
e--0--         e--0--
B--3--         B--3--
G--2--         G--4--
D--3--         D--2--
A-----         A--3--
E--1--         E-----

Yeah yeah ok so I got lazy sorry guys. I just thought those two chords sounded pretty good/close to the real thing. I'll make a more complete version.


@Kabukibear (July 29, 2007 at 5:13 PM)

lolol I'm not critcizing archard, you know me, how often do I keep things exactly as they're played? lol.

I was just trying to respond to gibson's post.


@gibson (July 29, 2007 at 7:59 PM)

Well, according to the music, in order for the chords to be right, each will have to involve 6 notes.


@Kabukibear (July 29, 2007 at 11:35 PM)

I don't think they "have" to do any such thing. Music that's not written for guitar has to be adjusted for the shortcomings of the instrument. Much in the same way that a bend or harmonic wouldn't transfer over to a piano rendition of a guitar piece.


@gibson (July 30, 2007 at 1:37 AM)

Normally, I would agree with you, but I've seen a video clip of 2 guys with guitars plus some chick with a flute play this song. I don't remember where I saw it, But the 2 guys made it sound almost the same as in the game.


@Kabukibear (July 30, 2007 at 12:20 PM)

Then perhaps the guitars were tuned differently in order to accomodate. That's always possible. I was just speaking in terms of the tuning archard chose.
