Topic: Wyrd Sisters - Farewell to Clayoquot Sound

Hey, this is a pretty difficult song to find the chords to on the internet. I know it starts with D minor and C, but can't figure out the main chorus/refrain chords.

Any help is super appreciated. I'd love to be able to play this song.

This is a link to a youtube video of a guy playing the song:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEedoBu6SmY   

Thanks!


Todd

Re: Wyrd Sisters - Farewell to Clayoquot Sound

Hi and welcome to the forum.  There's no Dm that I hear, but this is what I DO hear.

Intro:  Em-Em, then a riff:  3X [E:0h2 3, A:0h2, D:0] then 1X [E:0h2 3, A:0h2 0]
Verse:  (Em)Van- ... (Am)last ... (C)mighty ... (D)bold,  (Em)big ... fare(Am)well fare(C)well to (D)Clayquot (Em) Sound
Then the second opening riff played twice:  2X [E:0h2 3, A:0h2 0]
Verse:  (Em)NDP . . . (Am)play ... (C)all ... (D)boys,  (Em)Sold ... (Am){?*} (C)cut and (D)that's ... (Em) sent.
Then the first part of the opening riff played once:  [E:0h2 3, A:0h2, D:0]
Chorus:  (C)Blow ... (D)blow ... (Em)down ... (C)dead ... (G)night ... (D)into ... (Em)ground, (Am){?*} ... (x2x210**){?*} ... (C)Clayquot (D) Sound, (C ring)take ... (Em)down
Then another verse.
Then a riff.
Then a chorus.
Then a riff played twice.
Then another verse.
Then a riff.
Then two choruses back to back.
Then a riff.
Then the outro:  (Em) … (Am) …  (D) … (Am)sound
End on a riff.

* = I can't understand the lyric here
**  =  Start with the previous chord (Am) and move your middle finger from the D string to the A string 2nd fret and mute the D with the pad of your middle finger.  It's a walkup from Am to C.

Good luck with it.
