Sixpence None the Richer - A Million Parachutes

Song: A Million Parachutes
Artist: Six Pence None The Richer
Album: Divine Discontent
Written by: Matt Slocum and Sam Ashworth
Tabbed by: Christopher Taylor

This song is in the key of Bb. So you could technically play it with a
Capo 1st in A, or Capo 7th in E, but I think Capo 3rd in G sounds the
most like the album. Here goes.

Capo 3rd fret

Intro/Fill/Verse
G, G/B, Em7, A7sus, A7 (repeat many times)

Chorus
Em7, D, G, C (3x)
Em7, D...

And that's it! This is one of the best CDs I've ever bought. I'm currently
tabbing Breathe Your Name and should have it up in a little while.

Comments about this tab

Agree with Christoper Taylor (Tab-er) that this album is more magical every time I listen to it. A Million Parachutes is particularly mesmerizing, and a great note on which to end the album. Sad as I am by the band breaking up, I won't say "RIP SNTR" - their music lives on.

This is indeed an awesome album. Howver, the opening chords they have here are not G to G/B but C9 to G, all with Capo on 3. The opening chord for the chorus isn't right either, but I haven't figured out what it is yet. Em7 doesn't sound right. The rest is correct. It should be:

C9 (x320033)
G
Em7
Asus7
A7

Chorus:

?
D
G
C

The chord on the chorus is an Am7.
