Country Song — Seether
Chords and lyrics for Country Song by Seether (key of F).
Verse 1
This is a Drop D version, I think they play it with one guitar tuned down a
whole step on every string,
but you cant play along with the
song that way.
You can also play the riff during the verse, you can find it in the tabs
but it is for a guitar tuned
down a whole step on every string; I have added a simplified version if you
want to play it in Drop D.
The strum is a downstroke on the up beat.
Play Bridge 2 part with these
Riff 1 Intro
They play this riff on the 2nd guitar at a lot of line ends which are not
totally noted in this for
ease of playing. You can just slide from G5 to F5 to D5 if it's easier.
