How Will You Go

The chord progression of the verses here is really nice. Dsus2/F has something haunting about it, and Em11 is just a great, rich chord shape.

Barre the A chords in the verses, but play a standard A shape in the chorus so you can follow it with Asus. Note that during the verses a sparse G5 is used, but at other times a full barred G is preferable.


Intro

F   G5



Verse

G5        Cadd2   Dsus2/F
Escape is on your mind again

To long hard nights of drinking

Chorus

D            A   Asus

D            A   Asus
How will you go

Em7               Bm           G*
Drive through the wind and the rain

D        A   Asus
Cover it up

D        A   Asus
Cover it up

     Em7        Bm         D7sus D7   D7sus   D7
I'll find you a shelter to sleep in

Round the world, round the world, is a tangled up necklace of pearls
