Loving the Weyes Blood record “Titanic Rising” that came out a few weeks ago! And so I thought “Picture Me Better” had a truly beautiful lyric, melody and chord progression. To me, it has a bit of a jazz standard vibe. So I put together a little cover on guitar.
‘Picture Me Better’ is originally in the key of A flat (it sounds like she plays it in G with a capo on the first fret) but to fit my, uh, unpolished voice I dropped down the vocals an octave and moved it to the key of B: with a capo on the second fret so I can get the open dominant chord, if that makes sense.
