Ceremony Chords
by New Order
Ceremony by New Order is a more advanced guitar song played in the key of Amaj. It uses the chords Amaj7, E, F#, F#maj7, B, C#, A#, F, G and A. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
Notes: It's easiest to play with capo on fret #1, but then the Amaj7- E sequence
is disabled (either find new fingerings for them or let them be shifted
to their corresponding #s which is weaker )
The full barre' versions of the chords are preferable, imo.

There are two main chord riffs:
#1 (fast)
F# F# Nochord F#maj7 F# F# Nochord F#maj7
I've heard them all, no mercy shown
B B B B B B B C# A#
Heaven knows it has to be this time
(repeat)
--
#2
(which is also applicable to the NO intro, that is play it before the 1st verse,
figuring the rhythm for yourselves)
Amaj7 E
Watching Forever
(i think it's better to play notes while singing this, the chords suit the intro
better)

That's as far as i got now. Again, i'd love to get feedback on it, as i fear
there is room for corrections.

P.S. oh, almost forgot... A BONUS TRACK!!!
By complete coincidence, i found yesterday the rhythm chords for "Walked in
Line" - very simple progression-regression (with standard barre' chords):
F G A G F
Again, figure out the rhythm alone (long durations on the Fs and As, very
short on the G)
Have fun!
