Magnetic Fields - The Nun’s Litany

Magnetic Fields - The Nun’s Litany (Chords)

As its title suggests, the latest album from Magnetic Fields, Distortion, is loud, dirty and electrified. As a result, there’s no ukulele at all. Even live he’s eschewed the uke in favour of a bouzouki.

Nevertheless, no one can fully recover from playing the uke and Merritt broke his out for version of The Nun’s Litany on Fair Game. So, I had to work it out and upload the chords.

Most of the chords are fairly simple. The only potential difficulty is the quick changes between G and Gsus4. Here you strum down, up, down, up with all the down strokes a G chord and all the upstrokes Gsus4.

Download the mp3 on Fair Game.

If this is your first visit here, you can find the chords/tab in those posts by clicking on the song title in red.
