Gatekeeper - Feist
- Standard Tuning
- No Capo
A little note. When playing these chords I usually just play the bottom strings more
the top strings, it just sounds better that way. Also, with the Pre-Chorus, between the
and then Em9, and the Am9 and Bm11, you slide up the fretboard. It takes a while to get
putting your fingers in that position, but once you get used to it, it's not so bad.
plays it with a specific strumming pattern and if you listen to the song you can figure
out pretty easily. Good luck!

[Intro] Am9 - Dm9 - Bm11 - E7#9
[Verse]
[Am9]Well it's time to begin as the s[Dm9]ummer sets in
It's the s[Bm11]cene. You set for new lov[E7#9]ers
You play[Am9] your part painting in a[Dm9] new start
But each [Bm11]gate will open anot[E7#9]her
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm9 -slide- Em9 Am9 -slide up to Bm11-
June July and August said
"It's [Bm11]probably hard to plan [E7#9]ahead"

[F]Gatekeeper seas[A#7]ons wait for your nod[G13]
[F]Gatekeeper you held[A#7] your breath
Made the summer go on an[G13]d on
[Verse]
[Am9]Well they tried to stay in from the[Dm9] cold and wind
Making l[Bm11]ove and making their dinn[E7#9]er
Only to [Am9]find that the lo[Dm9]ve that they grew in the s[Bm11]ummer
[E7#9]Froze

Dm9 -slide- Em9 Am9 -slide up to Bm11-
February April said
