Little Sister — Queens of the Stone Age
Chords and lyrics for Little Sister by Queens of the Stone Age (key of C#m).
Verse
The Chorus chords are hybrid between two that are changed with every
F#sus4 is between x-9-11-x-x-x (F#5) and x-9-9-x-x-x (F#sus4)
E is x-7-9-x-x-x (E5) and x-7-6-x-x-x (E)
G#sus4 is x-11-13-x-x-x (G#5) and x-11-13-x-x-x (G#sus4)
stroke.
You can also just play F#5, E5 and G#5.
I like to use the lower octave chords for that part although that's not in
the song.
In the outro there aren't really any chords when the Lead guitar plays on
it's own,
but you can approximate that with the ones I wrote down.
Or just keep doing what the guitar is doing throughout the entire song
except the Chorus.
