<< Back to Paolo Nutini Song List
Version 1 Version 3Paolo Nutini - Better Man (Chords) G* D7* Am7* Gmaj7* G*: The G Chord in this song is a normal G but your finger positions move along one (So your little finger will be playing the 1st string at the third fret and so on) this is so your index finger can hammer and hold on the first fret of the B string. Listen to Paolo play to get a feel of when to do this. Look below at the diagram: E A D G B E ---------------- | | | | h | ---------------- | 2 | | | | ---------------- 3 | | | | 4 ---------------- | | | | | | ---------------- | | | | | | ---------------- Am7*: There are a few parts where Paolo hammers on the first fret of the B string when playing the Am7 so just listen out for that in the link below if you want to get it spot on. Gmaj7* This can be a little tricky to play but you can look at is a standard G but instead of playing the 1st string at the 3rd fret play it at the 2nd. Diagram of how I play it below: E A D G B E ---------------- | | | | | | ---------------- | 2 | | | 1 ---------------- 3 | | | | | ---------------- | | | | | | ---------------- | | | | | | ---------------- D7* This will require a hammer on the 3rd fret of the 1st string every now and then. (again, have a listen). If you have trouble with any of that check out the live performance by Paolo and see how he does it. --.-/watch?ds49aNsx-JVymaGk [Verse 1] G D7 Am7 She makes me smile, she thinks the way I think D7 G That Girl, makes me want to be better G D7 Am7 Took her down Bleaker Street, saw she drank the way I drink.
