My Sweet Charade Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers
Tuning: Standard
This Riff is part of the intro and verse. It's 2 good strums on the E, then I play the
a muted strum, and another B then to the A. You can also try the B as just another 2
without the mute. You can listen for where the riff fits in, I'll list the chords that
