Travis: More Than Us

this is such a great song. There are two main guitars in it, acoustic and electric
but you can fake it if you're on your own with an acoustic.

The chords are the same as posted before but instead of just strumming them
Fran plays these notes over most of the C chords. Don't play them
exclusively but emphisise them when struming by lifting your middle finger.

Over the C chords:
E -------------------------0----|
B --------------1----------1----|
G --------0--2-----2--0----0----|
D --0--2-----------------2------|
A ------------------------------|
E ------------------------------|
the last bit is on the upstroke real quick

You can hear these being played at the end of some of the C chords:
E --0----|
B -----1-|
G -------|
D -------|
A -------|
E -------|

And a little faster at the end of some of the G7's:
E --1----|
B -----0-|
G -------|
D -------|
A -------|
E -------|

This is played shortly after the Dm's:
E --8--5-|
B -------|
G -------|
D -------|
A -------|
E -------|

This is played on the electric over the C in the Bridge:
E -------------------------------------------------|
B --------------1----------------------------------|
G --------0--2-----2--0-----------0----------------|
D --0--2-----------------2--0--2-----2--0--2--0----|
A -----------------------------------------------3-|
E -------------------------------------------------|

Finally this is played over the Am chord:
E --0------------|
B --1------------|
G --2------------|
D --2--------1/2-|
A --0--2--3------|
E ---------------|

Another little trick you can do is lift you middle finger on and off the third
string on the F chords in the Verse while you strum to make it sound even cooler.
Make sure you pull off from the second fret to open though, but start the
hammer-ons from open.
And although it doesn't happen in the song, when you play the G7 in the bridge I
think it sounds good to pull your index finger off the G7 when Fran sings the
first "Hey" and put it back on when he sings the second. But thats just me :)
