Staralfur (acoustic) - Sigur Ros Most of this was worked out using although the song order is different to the cd. Just to confuse you I've kept the original order. Also the video is in E and not the half note up on the cd. There's a mp3 of exactly how I play it here (capo on 1st fret): Intro: | | A7add11 | | | | x2 blá nótt yfir himininn *Play D for a bar then * , , , blá nótt yfir mér a beat each for the second bar horf-inn út um glugann minn með hendur faldar undir kinn hugsum daginn minn í dag og í gær blá nóttfötin klæða mig i, * beint upp i rúm breiði mjúku sængina loka augunum ég fel hausinn undir væng Chorus: starir á mig lítill ál-fur hleypur að mer en hreyfist ekki A** G G/F# **(confused by this bit - A sounds ur stað - - sjalfur better but it looks like he's playing on the vid. I play ) starálfur Back to the intro over | A | A7 A7add11 | D | Dmaj7 D | x2 etc Opna augun stírurnar úr * trygi mig og tel (hvort ég sé ekki) kommin aftur og alltalltilæ samt ventar eitthvað G D*** ***Here I play the D for most of the bar eins og alla veggina then Dsus2, D, Dsus4 quickly before the instrumental to mimic the orchestra The instrumental interplay: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Then play the chorus again followed | | | | | | | | x2 (actual bar timing a bit sketchy) Then ** ur stað - - sjalfur starálfur Notes: x02020 A7add 11 = x02022 xx0222 - x4535x I use 3x0003 for G G/D chord at the end is xx0033 2x0033 2x0232 x40232 Other bits you could play {Pre-Intro: violins start with: E--12---------|--14----------------| x2 B--14---------|--15----------------| G-(14)--------|-(14)---------------| D-(14)--------|--12----------------| A--12---------|--------------------| These are also the verse chords but you can just play A and D basically.
