NotesBeta

To learn Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals - (Live) Excuse Me Mr chords, these are the chords to practise in sequence: A, C, G, A, C and A. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 90 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 181. For a balanced pitch, adjust the capo with respect to your voice and the song's key: C Major.
