Sufjan Stevens - Good Man Is Hard To Find

( from the kcrw sessions part 6 on you tube )

there is one main chord progression that runs through out the song; it goes a little
something like this :

capo 6 :
Asus2 | C | G | D/F# | C | G | D/F#

listen carefully to the recording to get the changes and timing correct . also , he
embellishes the strumming with a number of seemingly random pull – offs that can be figured out
fairly easily but are difficult to transcribe .

during the doo doo parts their is a small melody played with your fingering pinky while
strumming/plucking the chords it is on the B string over the Asus2 and G chords as such :

B – – 3 – 2 – 0 – – | | – – 3 – 2 – 0 – – |
Asus2 | C | G | D/F# |

additionally i’m doing this from memory without a guitar in hand , and if i’m correct the
C – G – D/F# part of the progression is omitted from this section of the song .

note that the doo doo part is also played during the outro .

a great tune , corrections are welcomed .
