Silver Trees Rocky Votolato
Tuning - Standard with Capo 3rd
I dont want to be a d head trying to correct the other tab for this song but one
or two of the chords didn't sound right, so here's what i've always played...but i
will not tell you it's 100% accurate
The chords here are also technically labeled wrong, but the shapes are correct
when Capo 3rd-ed?....so capo 3rd and play it how it looks
I believe this song is fingerpicked or skillfully picked regardless, but these
chords are easily played with a pick.
and he connects most of the chords with hammer-ons and slides.. just listen to
song for timing/rhythm/all that other stuff
[Am] [C] [F] [F] [G] [G] [C]
[Am] i h[C]ear you [F]call me
branches br[G]eak in the w[C]ind
[Am] through the le[C]aves and con[F]crete
you're gonna g[G]row to somet[C]hing that d[Em]eath can't s[Am]teal
a [F]garden that [G]gives
[C]sprouts come[Em] up g[Am]lowing
[Dm]fruits of [G]jade and golden [F]silver [Am]trees
to [F]mark the [G]legacy
of a [F]life [G]that [Am]final[G]ly l[F]earned [G]what this [C]means
[Am] the in[C]visible [F]choir sings
you a [G]voiceless less[C]on
[Am] so youll a[C]lways reme[F]mber
what grew [G]out of decis[C]ions that [Em]death cant s[Am]teal
[F]lives that learned to [G]give
[C]when it [Em]seemed there was [Am]nothing
[Dm]oh how much more it [G]meant to those [F]around we [Am]go
theres a r[F]hythm soft and s[G]low
youll a[F]lwa[G]ys he[Am]ar th[G]e cho[F]ir if you li[G]sten clo[C]se
-just a note or two.... if the rapid progressions at the ends are hard (the F G Am
G F) try playing the barre chord for each so it's just up and down instead of all
over the place
the Em is not a full 022000 chord...just that first 2(on the A string) is the
important part as it kind of makes the transition between C and Am
for that matter the Am after the Em has a low E in it as well (open on low
E)...basically there are extra notes thrown in all over the place so listen to the
song 346 times and improv it however it suits you...
if you read that and said wtf, ignore it
ha
good luck
