Odalisque  The Decemberists

* denotes power chord
The chord I called BaddF# is a (partially) barred B major played with the F# on the high
string (9th fret). It looks like this:
 
 E--9-------------|
 B--7-------------|
 G--8-------------|
 D--9-------------|
 A----------------|
 E----------------|

Strum that chord very slowly, accenting the F#. Watch the timing on some of the
it can be tricky. Please rate!

Sapling switches will rend those rags alright
