Emery - Negative Nine Acoustic

this is one of my all time favorite emery songs . i’ve only ever heard it acoustic
and it has two guitar parts . the second guitar part is only played at the beginning
and at the ending . i’ve included it for those that want it .

also during an interlude towards the end of the song there is a part which uses some
chords from earlier in the song , but i use different variations of those chords . i
personally just find it easier to use the alternate chords , but it’s up to you .
