Notes:
Play the intro chords as power chords in the Em position at frets 7, 10, 12, and 14
respectively.
Play the song in 11/8 time signature (hence the name). If 11/8 looks like a date on the
calendar to you,
then listen to the song and you will hear the very interesting beat.
Play the verse chords A in the 3rd position, D in the 3rd position, and E in the 4th
position
(frets 5, 5, and 7 respectively.)
Disclaimer:
There is no right by which I should be telling you what chords to play, especially with
a Dead song, but this
is merely a guide to help you on your journey of musical fulfillment in the epic "THE
ELEVEN."
