Placebo - Special K

hey – tuning is signature placebo F A# D# G# C C ( essentially 1/2 a step up with
the high E dropped down to C to match the B string )

essentially to play the chords you can either tune your guitar up 1/2 a step , or
capo 1 and play the chords relative to the capo

chords ( if you want to use the placebo tuning ( otherwise just play them as you typically would ) :
Asus2 F C D5 ( F/E * )
C 0 ( 1 ) ( 1 ) 3 / x x –
xc 0 ( 1 ) 1 3 / x x –
xab 9 2 0 2 / 7 10 – 9
D# 9 3 2 0 / 7 x –
xbb 0 3 3 x / 5 8 – 7
F x 1 x x / x x –

xfor all of the d5s you can play A Dm if you want
for the cs you can also play A C5 ( x355xx )
F/E * is really just playing an F octave ( 8th fret ) 3times and then sliding down to
an E octave ( 7th fret )
