Question:
Anyone know the chords to the new John Mellencamp song Our Country? Need to learn it for a parody in a sketch comedy show. I don't read tab and I can't find the chords on Chordie or anywhere.
Answer:
No offense intended, but BI (Before Internet) folks used to actually listen to a chord, identify the individual notes that made up that chord, then work out the fingering for that chord. I know but I am a comic with very limited guitar ability and I was asking if anyone happened to know them since I'm not good at figuring out chords on my own. Before the internet, people also used to not mind offering a small amount of help to people from time to time when asked, especially if all they were being asked for was information they already had lying around.
