Car Crash — Matt Nathanson
Chords and lyrics for Car Crash by Matt Nathanson (key of C).
Verse 1
This is a simple song to learn, and, as opposed to the album version,
the acoustic (EP) version can be played by yourself, without the need of a
back-up band
an electric guitarist.
choose to tune it up,
Just listen to the song and you'll get the timings.
Also, you can add little transitional chords (normally, in this song, a D
transitions a
to Em nicely, or vice versa),
and since some parts of the song itself are hard to hear, there may be a
few incorrect chords,
or a missed one here or there, but what I've got here is good for solo
performance.
