Subject: CHORD: History By The Verve

Group: The Verve
Album: A Northen Soul
Song: History
Music: The Verve
Lyrics: Richard Ashcroft
Hut Recordings, (72438404372)
Chorded by: Ross Howard (Rossh@clear.net.nz)
>From work by: Michael A. Atienza, Kevin Dutcher

I have had trouble finding a chording of History to my satisfaction. All
of the versions that I have come across have been flawed in many ways.
But I found a reasonable one on a Verve site and have used this as my
base for this one. I must then thank Atienza and Dutcher for theirs was
the base for this work here. Bear in mind that I have only been able to
complete this after discovering a chord (Asus4) used in The Verve's new
album Urban Hymns. I hope this feels better than other chords around. It
certainly does for me. Also their version has a different intro - one
that sounds completely wrong and their Cmaj7 is incorrect - I prefer a a
Cmaj with a G on high E string.)However, the lyrics on the copy were
superb and I have used them and the structure provided.
