Текст песни I Fight Dragons — Eighteen + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
Hey again guys and gals! I always start by saying what an awesome band this and how much
I thoroughly enjoy their songs! I hope you enjoy this tab I know it is a hundred
percent accurate. If you have any questions feel free to comment on the bottom and I'll do my best to answer.
Need to knows to play:
-Standard Tuning
-This song is performed by the group using all bar chords, but if you don't like that
then you can do whatever you please. :D
-The guitar strumming pattern for this song is probably the most difficult part, but if
you listen to the song enough times it should come without too much trouble.
-The strumming style in the chorus is completely different than that of the verses.
-Every time you get to the verse before the chorus it builds to a hard stop on the last
A chord and then the chorus begins. (Listen to the song)
-There is a hard stop every time on the last E of the chorus before he says eighteen.
(Listen to the song)
-The G chord in the chorus that moves from G to E to D is a very fast chord change
compared the rest of the song. I recommend using the following chords as dictated for this
specific part.

B-----11-------9-------7-------------|
