Triggerfinger: I follow rivers


Visiting Suikerrock last Thursday, I just had to see Triggerfinger. Their life performance is seriously thrilling and I have been whistling the tune of their cover of Lykke Li's"I follow rivers" for the past week.

Getting the chords was fairly easy, although I play it a full tune higher than the original video.

My version is as follows:


E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-10-10-----8---------------------------------------------------|
G|-------10----10-10--9--7--7--9--9---------9--9--7--------------|
D|----------------------------------10--12----------10-----------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|

[Verse]
Dm            Am
Oh I beg you, can I follow
Dm           Am
Oh I ask you why not always
Dm           Am
Be the ocean where I unravel
Dm          Am
Be my only, be the water where I’m wading
Dm                           Am            C
You’re my river running high, run deep run wild


[Chorus]
F           Dm           Am                   
I I follow, I follow you deep sea baby
C 
I follow you
F           Dm            Am                   
I I follow, I follow you, dark boom honey
C 
I follow you

[Verse]
Dm                Am
Here's a message, I’m the runner
Dm              Am
He’s the rebel, I’m the daughter waiting for you
Dm                           Am            C
You’re my river running high, run deep run wild


[Chorus till end]
F           Dm           Am                   
I I follow, I follow you deep sea baby
C 
I follow you
F           Dm            Am                   
I I follow, I follow you, dark boom honey
C 
I follow you


If you want to play along with the video, you can tune your guitar a whole tune down or replace the chords as follows:
