The Avett Brothers - I And Love And You Chords

This song is written for piano not guitar, so these chords are all approximate.

Tune every string down a whole step (D B C F A D).


    Chord Pattern I:

  Load the car and write the note
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|

    repeat Chord Pattern I through first three lines of every verse:

  Grab your bag and grab your coat
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|

  Tell the ones that need to know
e|-0-----------------0--------0---|
B|-0-----------------2--------0---|
G|-9-----------------2--------1---|
D|-9-----------------2--------2---|
A|-7-----------------0--------2---|
E|-0-----------------x--------0---|

    Chord Pattern II:

   We are headed north
e|-4------2------0------|
B|-5------4------2------|
G|-6------4------2------|
D|-6------4------2------|
A|-4------2------0------|
E|-x------x------x------|

The whole song goes this way,
with the small exception that no matter where it appears in the verse,
"I and Love and You" is always accompanied by Chord Pattern II.
You can alternate using the high E chord (079900) and the standard E (022100)
to start off Chord Pattern I.
I like using only standard E (022100) in the "Brooklyn" verses.

Thank you to all who post
