TUNING: E (eBGDAE) How to read these chord schemes?
Bring me back to an hour ago
Time stands still as the years go by
Brown eyed girl that's throwing down a bottle of Old English
Back in the warehouse

Old days are fine but are left so far behind
From California to Jane Street
Kids alright, alright as they'll ever be
'Cause you will always be my
Well you will always by my
You will always be my sweet sixteen

Sleep on the floor on cardboard
Stab out my heart like a dart board
Browned skinned girl I had a dream about a long, long time now
From the midwest to the beach

Old days are fine but are left so far behind
From California to Jane Street
Kids alright, alright as they'll ever be
'Cause you will always be my
Well you will always by my
You will always be my sweet sixteen

Old days are fine but are left so far behind
From California to Jane Street
Kids alright, alright as they'll ever be
'Cause you will always be my
Well you will always by my
You will always be my sweet sixteen

How to read these chord schemes

1 - chord name, 2 - chord designation, 3 - chord scheme

Chord name

There is the name of a chord before the symbols. If it's "*" added to a name, it means that this chord is played in different positions during the song.

Chord designation

There are 6 symbols in a designation, read it from left to right. The first symbol defines the thickest string (6th string), the second symbol defines 5th string and so on.

"0" means open string

"x" means this string isnt played

"Number" means number of a fret.

Example:

x02220

6th string isnt played
5th string is open
4th string is played on 2nd fret
3rd string is played on 2nd fret
2nd string is played on 2nd fret
1st string is open

Chord scheme

Imagine that you are looking at the fret while playing guitar - the closest string to your eyes is the 6th, the thickest string. There are 6 horizontal lines defines strings, the upper one is the thinnest string (1st string).
And there are 4 lines defined frets - no exact frets numbers defined.
In some schemes there is a thick line on the left - it defines the nut.

  • "0" means open string
  • "x" means this string isnt played
  • Fat dots mean fingers positions

Example:

G5 355xxx
