I Fight Dragons
Chicago Chords
Hello everyone! Thanks for checking out my tab!It's a really awesome song from a really awesome band!
I do believe it is completely accurate even though I wrote the lyrics out from what I heard on the
recording. I had to do this because it hasn't been released yet so the lyrics were not available.
But I still think I got most of them. The chords I am positive are correct! So have fun playing
this song, because it's great!
Helpful hints:
I highly recommend using bar chords but it's not completely necessary. I also suggest you try
playing along to the song to get the hang of the rhythm from the G#m to the E,
