Ghost Story - Chris's Chords and Tuning


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

I'm completely in love with Ghost Story (The Target Bonus track). I know the chords are D, C, G in standard tuning EADGBe.

 

But...I have a feeling that Chris is playing his chords in a different tuning. Can anybody pinpoint the tuning and how to play the chords?

I love this song as well. I'll give the above suggestion a try. I've been messing around with some odd tunings though. Chris likes to play his chords in very untraditional ways so I have a suspicion, based on the sound of the guitar as well as history that he's doing something unique here.

No, that's bullshit, I've went to a GS concert and he often changes his guitar, so why should he do that if they were In same tuning? Oh, Oceans tabs are already available btw!

I believe all the acoustic guitar songs on Ghost Stories are tuned to DADGAD

At least Ink and Oceans are.

 

Actually the tuning is DGDGAd, not DADGAd.

You can hear it when Chris singing "in the rain...the raaainn..". In that second "rain" the second string is clearly open and tuned to G.

 

Therefore the chords are:
