I recently posted "Hummingbird," and here is (I think) a pretty accurate crack at "Short Work." Feel free to let me know if you have any questions . . . RG http://members.aol.com/rongrittz/pages/chords.htm SHORT WORK Capo V The (--/F#) is just a quick walk-down which you'll play by just hitting the 2nd fret on the 6th string while transitioning from the (G) to the (Em) chord.
