Aight, after looking at my last post and the comments, I realize the devil is a liar so here we go with my first attempt at posting something.


Try these chords for "Believer" by Tonex. The notes in the parenthesis are merely suggestions to add color to the otherwise very bland chords.

Eb/GBbEb(F)
(walking bass) Eb, F, F#
G/GBbDbEb (hit 3x)
Ab/AbBbCEb
Ab/AbCEbGb (hit 2x)
G/GBDF
Gb/BbDbE
F/ACEb
F/AbCEb (quick hit)
Bb/FAbCEb (hit 2x)
Eb/GBbEb


Ok, so there it is. Listen to the Cd, play around with the chords. If I get anything else, OR if anyone else can add or subtract from this PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE feel free.


Hope this helps, or at least gets you started.

Did I say something wrong? :oops:

Anyway I was saying use the basic triads but just add the octave on the end. Like this:

Bb Eb G Bb the switch with the bassline to the C Eb Ab C

You can slide back and forth on the black keys because it in Eb. It gives the song a funking sound. It's really best to keep it simple because you want to hear the choir breakups.

What I do do is when I get to the Bb before the Eb at the end is to slide down to a high Ab chord.

Some runs I use after the first Eb chord i roll C Bb Ab G
And before you go to start over I do Bb, Ab, Gb, Ab, Gb, Eb

I needed to know you're bassline to be able to help you.

Stay Cool Man,
