Vic's Answer: C Eb G F
Colorado's Answer: G Eb C Ab
The answer I was looking for was Fm9: F Ab C G (Eb omitted) [x 8 6 8 8 x]
Colorado hits all notes except the F, so while it's freakishly close I can't accept it. Vic's answer isn't quite it either but it can be seen as an inverted Fm9 (Fm9/C), omitting the third instead of the septim. So Vic's the winner of this showdown.

I was closer than I thought too - at one stage I tried x8788x.....and discarded it!
Oh well (that's not a clue BTW, even though it is an old Fleetwood Mac song!) let's see how you all get on with this - the chord is ridiculously simple, even though the voicing is unusual. I've done this without actually tuning my guitar, so it may be a touch out but not much.

Song is called "Shhhhh!"....
Clues will be forthcoming if you need them.

i'll give you the chord , CFB, but not the voicing.....you're bang on the money with the open E (bottom) string but too high up with the rest.
You're sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo close - want to try again? and keep below the twefth fret? Think of a G-shaped chord moved long way up.....
And - can you tell me what classic rock song starts with that chord? No bonus points, but it'll do your street cred a lot of good....

That one's exactly right. You must have been "Listen(ing) to the Music!".....take it away, Colorado! (Didn't John Wayne once say that? To Rick Nelson, if memory serves me right? Rio Bravo? I'll have to look that up....)ColoradoFenderBender wrote:Vic, the only thing I can come up with, is:
E A D G B E
0 11 9 9 9 x
These are basically all the same notes, just shifted over one string and then back 5 (or 4 frets)?

Man! After several hours of screwing around trying to get this right, I think I FINALLY got it! Please let me know if this doesn't work - I wouldn't be surprised! I am not too PC literate.
Anyway, this is a fairly simple one:
