Chord Tijuana Lady by Gomez

my first addition to ultimate - guitar tab chords in brief : intro : E F G F E x4 verse : A F#m E x6 D Bm D Bm D E A F#m E song in more detail : firstly , this is just an acoustic approximation of the song . just the best way that i have found to play it on a solo acoustic guitar . there are some 2nd guitar bits in the second verse that are lovely and if you have a loop recorder you might fancy going off on them whilst the melody continues , but i don’t have a loop recorder so i didn’t bother working them out . the end bit , where they go off on one about enchiladas , is a bit weird and ends with a fadeout which doesn’t really work on a solo acoustic . i made up my own way of playing it . totally different , but it works much better in the absence of production . please remember : this is never going to sound exactly like the recording but it’s the best way i’ve found to play it on a solo acoustic . play around with it , make it your own interpretation . standard tuning . intro : use your thumb to strum rapidly , but softly , up and down to create a tremulo effect . slide your left hand between the chords for the intro . sounds crazy , but i prefer it without barring the chords .
