Sa Tollgate – Ely Buendia
Here’s Sa Tollgate by Ely Buendia, posted, again, by popular demand. Hehe. I’m sure a lot of you have already heard the track in the Eraserheads Anthology 2, but this here is a remix done by Jeff Junatas. Lyrics and chords found below the skip. The chords are by briefconcert from the Circus Mailing list. (Sorry, I don’t know your real name!) If you guys want news and first looks (er… hear?) like this, go and join the mailing list!

IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE GUITAR PURISTS GO BALLISTIC: 1. D7 is like this (not good w/ chord names, I just wanna be sure), right? E--2--|B--1--|D--2--|G-----|A-----|E-----| 2. During the chorus (or during the F-C chord progressions),F is suppossed to be played like: E--0--|B--1--|D--2--|G--3--|A--3--|E--0--| 3. Because I'm not sure w/c chord is that played during the bridge (after the Am),nag-imbento ako! It goes something like this. E--2--|B--4--|D--2--|G--4--|A--3--|E--2--| 4. Please don't give me a "the song was played on A, not C" type of stuff.If you transpose it to C, it'd just be the same chord progression. When I played the CD andlistened to the song, it matched the opening chord matched C, so I took it from there. Plusit's easier to play in that note IMO.
