How to play " In one ear " by Cage The Elephant chords
Start Jamming...
[G#] Okay, I got a request from someone out there that they wanted to kind of hear the breakdown of [N] in one ear I
Caged the elephant
I have not heard this song until
He suggested it's a pretty cool song
Group [A] sounds pretty cool, eh?
Okay, [F#] so well it just starts off let's talk about the chords the first course is just it's gonna be a
[Em] sharp
The song kind of comes in on that and there we're just going to be using three chords f -sharp [B] B
[A#] It's really not so much [C#] the chords it's kind of the rhythm of the song but it comes in with that f-sharp
[F#] And then it kind of goes to do like a little
[Am] [B]
[F#] [A] [B]
[F#] [A] [B]
[F#] [E] [B]
[F#] [A]
[B] [F#] [Am]
[B] [N] You
So we're just going between those three chords and you kind of have to listen to the rhythm of it
There's a certain way that they're [A] playing it, but [F#] that's kind of the way I was hearing it was
Just going from the F sharp
[E] and I'm just playing an open a which open a string and then
[C] [B]
I'm just playing a B which [Em] is a [Bm] second fret of the A string and then fourth fret of the D and G string
[F#] [Am]
Okay, [B] [Bm]
so after that it kind of comes with the intro [D]
and then I
Think a little bit of the verse and then when he's trying to actually start singing it goes into [C] it's the same chords
But he goes from F sharp to A
[F#m] Sharp [B] [F#] [E] [A]
[B] [F#] to A
[A] And then he goes from F sharp to A
[F#] F sharp to B [B] and [C]
then F sharp A to [F#] B
[A]
Hang on the A there
[B] [G] Where you hit the B and then you can even play with just power chords on that part you can mix it up
So it's just going to be the three chords for the song you [C] could even play your F sharp and then you can play the
[G#m] A and the B
[C#] [C]
[F#] [A] [B]
[F#] [A]
[B] [Gm] [F#] [A]
[B] [F#] [Am]
[B] The other [F#] part of that [Am]
[N] I
think it sounds good if you if you upstroke the
Upstroke the A and the B kind of punches a little more so you go
But down stroke on the F sharp and then when you play the A and the B kind of upstroke [Bm] it kind of gives a [F#m] little
[B]
[F#] And [A] [B]
[F#m] [B]
[F#] [A] [B]
[E] I was kind of messing [G] around trying to find that some different ways to play those chords
One other variation you can probably try is you know if you want to play the F sharp
off the [F#] a string
You have it right there
So [C] that would be on the ninth fret
Your index fingers only [A#]
[G#]
[N]
and that's kind of a different voice than you could try so that would be your F sharp
And then you can play [E] your A or B
[F#]
[A] [B] [C#] [F#]
[A] [B] [F#]
[Am] [B] [F#]
[A] [B]
[G] [F#] [A] [F#]
[A] [Bm]
[F#] [A] [F#m] [B]
[F#] [A] [B]
[C#] And that's pretty much the song and then you just listen to the song and you'll hear other parts where he kind of just
stays on [F#] the instrument
[C] [Bm] And then there's that part at the [C#m] beginning where they're kind of it kind of sounds like
[G]
[A] So [G#] [A]
[E] [F#] [G#]
[A] [E]
[B] [G#] [A]
[G] [A]
[B] [A]
[C] [A]
[C#] for that you can just you can be thinking like your F [F#m] sharp
[E]
Pentatonic and just play the open E
to the second [N] fret of the top E
I mean this probably isn't exactly the way to do it, but it kind of gives you the vibe of
when he's playing that [F#] over the
[A] With [Bm]
[F#] [A] [B] [E]
that so I just go open E second fret [A] and then just kind of bend the
Seventh fret of the top E to the and then play it to the five so if you listen to kind of go
[E]
[G#] [A]
I
Ended on the fifth fret there Joe all on the top Eastern
[Cm]
You're [A] [E] [B]
[E] gonna [N] sneak in a open E there [E] after
[C] [G]
Kind [Em] [G#]
[A] [E] [A]
[E] [Cm] [A]
[G] of just messing around and make that your own but anyways, that's pretty much it
it's just those two parts is the majority of the song so just kind of listen to [D] the rhythm of it and
And it's a great song to kind of jam over to so I'll go over it again
Play one more time you can play along with me this time
So we'll come in with that [E] F sharp
[F#m]
[A] [B]
[F#] [A] [Bm]
[F#] [Am] [B]
[F#] [A] [B]
[F#m] [Am] [B]
[F#] [A]
[B] [F#] [Am]
[B] [F#] [A]
[B] [F#m]
[E] [F#] [A]
[E] [F#m]
[Em] [F#] [Am]
[B] [Em] [F#] [Am]
[B] [F#] [A] [B]
