This Is the Place Chords & Lyrics by Ed Helms
This Is the Place
guitar chords lyrics
...This is the movie version of the song. For the intro verse "This is it!(etc)"
instead of the noodling/riffing, I've subbed in the same chords used in the verse
parts. I worked this song out on an acoustic guitar, so the chords worked best --
I just sort of finger-pick a little to get that noodley feel. And, since a BUNCH
of lines of this little ditty are "na-na" and "la la" and YODELLING, I've tried to
phonetically and rhythmically transcribe them as best as I possibly could have.
*note: I play the Bm as a barre chord, and the 'sliding' up part is the best I
could decipher tonally.
E A
This is it, this is the place
D A
These truffula trees are just a-what I need
E (slide E up to the 4th, then 6th fret for "down" & "thneed")
