Shades Of Cool

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------                              Shades Of Cool - Lana Del Rey ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tom Askin E-mail: Tuning: standard Key: Dm Here’s the music for Lana Del Rey’s new tune Shades Of Cool. NOTE! There seems to be two different versions of this song going around one pitched up a semi-tone. hit the transpose button depending on what version you have. Loving the James Bond-esque chromaticism in during the verse the close harmony and big reverb give the tune that mysterious edge! Note for any of you people who write your own songs a little lesson for you!: |             G                 Gm              Arp | |And when he calls he calls for me and not for you| Going to chord IV in any key playing the major so in Dm we go to ’G’ then make the same chord minor ’Gm’ is a tried and tested technique used in thousands of songs...It’s super effective.
