Adele - Someone Like You Chords

Another wonderful song from Adele

Played on Jools Holland 'Later' November 2010


prior to its release on the '21' album in 2011.

That Jools performance was accompanied by piano, but an arpeggiated acoustic


guitar works beautifully with the song too.

This song is best picked rather than strummed, just playing simple patterns on the
basic
chords. I have added suggestions for the picking pattern at the bottom of the tab.

Tuning: EADGBE

-----------------------------------------

I hope the following will assist!

OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -

't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!

So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this

E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|

The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played
simultaneously with '2'!

E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|

...and so on for the other chords.

Luckily for us all, although Adele is magnificent, she plays guitar in a quite
simple style!

-----------------------------------------

I hope I've done it justice!
