Getting Started - by UkeleleUnity
To learn Rise Against - Swing Life Away chords with lyrics, - AOL Undercoverthese are the chords to practise in sequence: B, Eb, F#, C#, Ebm, C#, Ab, Ebm, C#, F#. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 61 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 124. Given the song's key of F#, adjust the capo to align with your vocal range and chord preference.
