Deader by Two Gallants Artist: Two Gallants Song: The Deader Album: Two Gallants Like most 2G's songs, this one is finger-picked and a bit tricky for the novice. There are two guitars on this track, acoustic and electric, playing similar things. in this song he only plays C G and F (and variations thereof) and picks the melody line on higher strings. The chords are indicated for fretting, but the chords are rarely strummed. Instead they finger-picked. So listen to the track to get a feel. Note: The | indicate the beginning of a measure.
