Chord/Tab song: Race for the Prize

Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: Race for the Prize - ( The Flaming Lips "race for the prize" here are the chord...)

--
The Flaming Lips
"race for the prize"

here are the chords used:

[Fmaj7] [Em7] [F/C] [Cmaj7] [G]
[C]


e---0-------x------x------x------3------1------0-|
B---1-------3------1------0------3------1------1-|
G---2-------0------2------0------0------2------0-|
D---3-------0------3------2------0------3------2-|
A---3-------2------3------3------2------3------3-|
E---x------(0)-----x------x------3------1------x-|


N.B it's important to dampen the strings not being used in the intro to really emphasise the
walking down bass pattern of E D C B (the E in Fmaj7, the D in Em7, the C in C/F and the
B in Cmaj7) so keep the chords really tight and it'll sound great. The open E string on the
Em7 chord is optional, but i think it makes the chord sound "dirty".

INTRO

this is the keyboard part arranged for guitar with added chords for your strumming pleasure:
