notes: i) must be *songs* ii) must HAVE ONLY ONE (1) OR TWO (2) chords
Pretty sure it's just A and B minor all the way through
Ikara Colt - One Note
Although I'm going with Bb and Gm for the verses, Cm and Ab for the verses.
But he definitely plays what I said in this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3ncWH7_pSM
And its obviously more than two chords
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you - just G and D or something.

there's only 2 chords
G, B, C, Cm - never seen the offical chord structure so I could be wrong of course.

That's only 2 chords
