Them Shoes Cifras

The G chord is the first in this killer intro, making lots of use of droning open strings, and there seems
to be a slight variation in how it is played in different parts of the song. In the intro, it seems
to be G on all 4 lower strings - no 3rd and no 5th either. Written below as G but it's all G, all the
time - giving it that unique haunting vibe. In subsequent sections, the B string is fretted at the 3rd fret,
which adds the 5th - listen for that high D. This exact shape then slides up in the next two chords, leaving
the open strings open.
 
Not sure what the UG chord notation is for the 2nd chord in the intro, but it follows the same shape
as the chord that precedes it and the one that follows it - simply slide 'em on up the neck. Calling this
chord a Bb6 (no 3rd) seems to best match the spirit of the ascending sequence. As you slide the chord root
from the 5th fret (the G) to the 8th fret (Bb5), the 6th fret of the G string becomes the high 6th to the Bb5
which adds some color. Since Bb6 (no 3rd) is an unweidly name it will just be simplified in the tab as Bb5.
 
Starting at verse 2 the chords are played down at the nut.
