Apologies for the self-promotion. Just wanted to share a cover i did over Ghost Story. I used the DADGAD tuning tuned down a semitone. I also just looped that little shaker percussive sound at the beginning. There are probably hundreds of ways to play the chords in this song. I layered four guitars and played the chords for the chorus differently for each one. For one take, I made the first D chord in the chorus with 0-0-7-7-0-0. For another take i did 0-5-7-7-0-0 and for another take I did 0-5-4-7-0-0. I played the second chord of the chorus at...what must have been the 10th fret. it might be a fret off, but just adjust by one for each finger if it is. 10-10-10-9-0-0 or 10-10-10-0-0-0. Same for the chord. 5-5-5-4-0-0 or just 5-5-5-0-0-0. The transition chord to the chorus was always 0-3-0-0-0-0. just played plucked power chords for the verses.

Here's a cover of "Always in My Head" that I just reworked. I wish I could remember how i played the guitar, but if anyone wants to know the piano chords I used I am happy to share them. It's in a different key than the album track.

Brilliant man! keep up the nice work! :)

Thanks man. Appreciate it. Just wish I wrote some of those coldplay songs. I'd kill to have the ones they throw away! I'm mixing Ghost Story right now. Tried to give it something at least different from the record

Here's the mix of Ghost Story. I found it kind of tough to record and mix for some reason. I like the song a lot though. looking forward to hearing that new one Miracles!
