What the hell is that chord?
 Does anyone know what the hell the opening chord is to the Killers, 'When we were young' ?I've learnt this song in standard tuning, but I suspect it may be actually half a step down, can anyone help?  |

They tune down a semitone like a of bands, it's played in C but will sound in B if your guitars in concert pitch. First chord thats faded in sounds a bit like G5C9 ... AKA Hard days night type chord

The song is in standard tuning. The opening chord is like a C# 7sus
It could be played here E.......x................. B.......7..................... G.......4......................... D.......6.............................. A.......4............................. E.......x................. Or an octave up using the same inversion but on the first four strings. Paulo |

Octave with an inversion is the correct answer. Well done Paul.
