A Million Parachutes
by Sixpence None the Richer

No one has quite gotten this song correct; it played with a capo on the third
fret, with the high-E string tuned to a D. No one has yet to suggest that.

Capo Third Fret, Tune high E string to a D

Those are all of the chords... now for the order. The purpose for the drop-D
tuning with the high E is because that note is heard through the entire song.
The rest of the chords have small differences here and there from their root
chords... I had many small arguments with a friend of mine about how exactly
they are played. It is to him that I give credit for the Drop-D tuning. I had
not thought of that. Also, the Asus in the chorus is questionable. There is an
E note played on the organ in the background, but the chord is not an E. The
Asus is the closest I have gotten as to what the actualy chord is. If you can
figure out what the chord is, please leave a comment.

Intro and Verses:
C   G    Em   Asus A

Chorus:
Am   D   G   C
Am   D   G   C
Am   D   G   C
Asus   D


And that is all there is to it.
