More Than Us

this is such a great song. There are
 two main guitars in it, acoustic 
and electric
but you can fake it if you're on 
your own with an acoustic.

The chords are the same as posted 
before but instead of just strumming
 them
Fran plays these notes over most of 
the C chords. Don't play them
exclusively but emphisise them when 
struming by lifting your middle 
finger.

Over the C chords:

E -------------------------0----| 
B --------------1----------1----| 
G --------0--2-----2--0----0----| 
D --0--2-----------------2------| 
A ------------------------------| 
E ------------------------------| 

the last bit is on the upstroke real
 quick

You can hear these being played at the end of some of the C chords:

E --0----| 
B -----1-| 
G -------| 
D -------| 
A -------| 
E -------| 


And a little faster at the end of some of the G7's:

E --1----| 
B -----0-| 
G -------| 
D -------| 
A -------| 
E -------| 


This is played shortly after the Dm's:

E --8--5-| 
B -------| 
G -------| 
D -------| 
A -------| 
E -------| 


This is played on the electric over the C in the Bridge:

E --------------------------------
B --------------1-----------------
G --------0--2-----2--0-----------
D --0--2-----------------2--0--2--
A --------------------------------
E --------------------------------

E|-----------------| 
B|-----------------| 
G|0----------------| 
D|---2--0--2--0----| 
A|---------------3-| 
E|-----------------| 


Finally this is played over the Am chord:

E --0------------| 
B --1------------| 
G --2------------| 
D --2--------1/2-| 
A --0--2--3------| 
E ---------------|

Dm
not anymore,
C
anymore,
C
anymore

Another little trick you can do is 
lift you middle finger on and off 
the third
string on the F chords in the Verse 
while you strum to make it sound 
even cooler.
Make sure you pull off from the 
second fret to open though, but 
start the
hammer-ons from open.
And although it doesn't happen in 
the song, when you play the G7 in 
the bridge I
think it sounds good to pull your 
index finger off the G7 when Fran 
sings the
first "Hey" and put it back on when 
he sings the second. But thats just 
me :)
