Anything Chords & Tabs
by Adrianne Lenker
[Version Description] Tuning: Open D#. In the recording there is also a guitar layered under the fingerpicked guitar that is likely strummed lightly with a paintbrush as well as a short solo guitar in the post chorus of the second chorus as well as the outro. This tab only covers the fingerpicked guitar that Adrianne plays. The other tabs for this song are in standard tuning and sort of get the right idea, but this tab has the correct tuning for the song (Open D#) and is as exact as the original recording as possible. The verses loop over the same four chords with a beautiful fingerpicked pattern and the chorus adds an additional chord. These chords are shown by themselves below and as well as the full tab of the song in order to show the finger picking pattern. This tab also works for Open D, Open E or any other open tuning with the same string relationships. The tuning is Open D# (D#A#D#GA#D#) The five chords used in this song: D# |--0--0---0--0---0---| A# |--0--0---0--0---0---| G |--0--0---0--0---0---| D# |--0--0---9--11--12--| A# |--9--10--5--7---9---|
