Anouk – One Word chords

ANOUK: One Word
Album: Hotel New York
Tabbed by: Evert Lancel

On CD the song is played in a lower tuning (Eb). I here put it in standard tuning. 
If you want to play along with the song, than you need to either tune your guitar 
half a note lower, or make a copy of the song in higher pitch, using some 
free sound editing software (Audacity). That's a lot easier than retuning all the 
time.

Chords in Standard Tuning:

D add9 sus4     x54030 (for short Dadd9..)
Am9           x05500 
Dsus2           xx0230
Asus2           x02200Em7             022030 (I like 02x030, because the basses come out stronger)
Bbm7            x24232
G               355433 
Csus2           x35533 

The strumming rhythm is very important: The first short strums should be on the bass 
tones only and the short strums for the rest of the measure should emphasis the 
higher tones (while playing the base strings as well. Although it varies all the time 
(just listen well), in a 16th measure it is basically like this 
(V = strumming downwards, A = strumming upwards): 

|V-V-VAVA--VAVA--|
