Verse 1
Amaj7 
G#m7 
In the shadows he saw    four eyes,
C#maj7 
Emaj7 
lit by fire,     fire
Amaj7 
G#m7 
He'd never done that
Dmaj7 
B7 
with a lover before,    before
Amaj7 
G#m7 
Meanwhile everyone else   got lost
C#maj7 
Emaj7 
in quiet by the river
Amaj7 
G#m7 
Seeking for more,
Dmaj7 
B7 
of course he found better

Accurately transcribed by the GuitarTuna team.

Barre chords ask a lot of the fretting hand. The barre course walks through hand position, pressure, and the cleanest way to land each shape. Practice barre chords

Minor 7ths sit between minor and major in feel. The course covers the shapes and the songs they show up in most often. Learn minor 7th chords

Even perfectly fretted chords sound wrong on an out-of-tune guitar. Get in tune in seconds, right in your browser, with the free online guitar tuner
