How to Play:
The song "Completely, Sweetly" by Dead South is structured around a series of
chords that create a haunting and rhythmic melody. To play this song on the guitar,
you'll need to be familiar with a few chords, specifically Dm, Bb, F, A, G, and C.
Let's break down the structure and offer some advice on how to play it effectively.

Chords Used:
Dm
Bb
F
A
G
C
Intro and Verse Progressions:
The intro and verses revolve around a progression of Dm, Bb, and F chords.
This cyclical pattern sets a moody atmosphere for the song.

For transitioning smoothly between these chords, focus on the position of your
fingers so you can move them as little as possible. For example, when moving from
Dm to Bb, try to keep your first finger barred across the strings, as both chords share
a similar shape.

Chorus:
The chorus introduces an A chord into the mix, which adds a sense of resolution to
the tension built up in the verses. The progression (Bb, F, A, Dm) should be played
with a sense of dynamics; start softly and build up as you move through the chords
to emphasize the emotional weight of the lyrics.

Instrumental and Bridge:
The instrumental and bridge sections introduce G and C chords, expanding the
harmonic palette of the song. The progression Dm, F, G, Bb, C, and then back to Dm
is more complex and requires attention to the rhythm and timing to maintain the flow
of the song.

For the instrumental parts, especially the ones with the G and Bb chords, focus on
the strumming pattern. A mix of down and upstrokes can help emphasize the rhythm.
Listen closely to the song to get a feel for the strumming pattern, and try to mimic the
emphasis on certain beats.

Playing Tips:
Rhythm and Timing: The song has a distinct rhythm that drives it. Pay close attention
to the strumming pattern and try to lock in with the tempo. Using a metronome while
practicing can be very helpful.
Dynamics: Playing with dynamics can really bring out the emotional content of the song.
Play softer during the verses and build up during the chorus and instrumental sections.
Finger Placement: Efficient finger placement is key for smooth chord transitions. Practice
moving between the chords slowly at first, focusing on keeping your movements as minimal
and efficient as possible.
Remember, the essence of "Completely, Sweetly" lies not just in the chords themselves
but in how you convey the emotion and dynamics of the song through your playing.
Practice the transitions and pay attention to the nuances of the song's rhythm and dynamics
to truly capture its essence.
