I was searching online for the chords to this most amazing and beautiful song off of The Odes Project Volume 1 by Fernando Ortega:
I couldn’t find the chords online anywhere, so with the help of this awesome site, Chordify.net, which I found from this great site, allmyfaves.com, I put together the chords. And since I couldn’t find them anywhere online, I thought I would post them in case this might be helpful to someone else. If it is, please let me know!
The song is actually a half-step higher than these chords, but this is easier for me to play on my guitar, so I just use a capo on I. I actually also transposed it to G as well and have both in Word Docs, so if anyone wants a copy of the Word Doc(s), just give me your email address and I can email it to you. I didn’t put all the Alleluias in the end because for my purpose, I decided to end it as below with just a fade at the end. I played and sang it today in church actually. Love the words – great meditative, peaceful and liberating song.
I see the chords don’t line up in this format on this blog – so if you need help, I can email it in a Word doc.
