Egyptian Robe Chords
Egyptian Robe by Miniature Tigers is a moderately challenging guitar song played in the key of G. It uses the chords G, Am, D, Em and A. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
There's one chord I couldn't get, and it's at the very end of the Chorus.
These chords are tuned down a major 2nd to make it easier. Therefore I play these on the 2nd fret.
