Hi everyone, I'm looking for the lyrics and chords for, 'if we were words'
I'd rather engage here than search the web.
Re: Gruff Rhys
hey rob, bit of a late reply but I actually know that track. gruff rhys has some really cool stuff, super furry animals was one of those bands I got into way too late haha
I couldnt find the chords anywhere online either but I had a go at working it out by ear. pretty sure the verse is mostly Am and F with a G thrown in, and the chorus moves to C - G - Am - F. its one of those songs where the strumming pattern matters a lot more than the actual chords if that makes sense
if youre still looking id say just slow it down on youtube (the 0.75 speed thing) and try to pick it out, thats how I usually figure out the more obscure stuff. good luck with it
Re: Gruff Rhys
I love Gruff Rhys and his work with Super Furry Animals! For a less well-known track like “If We Were Words,” working it out by ear is probably your best bet if nobody here has a reliable chord sheet. The chord progression suggested above is a good starting point, but I’d check it against the recording before settling on it. If you figure out the verse and chorus, please share your version here — it would be great to have a reference for other people looking to play the song.
