Achilipu

Allright. I've looked the internet far and wide, searching for both acordes y chords por Achilipu by Dolores Vargas. I know this song is only two chords. But to my deaf ears, and to much conflicting information on the internet, I can't figure it out!!

I think one is G#m

(4th fret)
1

3
2

This is a very fun song, I'd love to just jam with it and learn the spanish -_-

si pueden ayudarme, i would be very grateful

RE: Achilipu (in reply to vigrond)

I think i might've figured it out.

G#m / F#5

So at the beginning it would be arpeggios on the bass strings, for each chord (starting on G#m)

then when she starts singing achili achili ahhii chil chilli, you do one rumba rhthm on each (starting on F#5)

then when she is actually speaking, it is two rumba rhythms for each chord.

And when she starts going apu apu apu, apu apu apu, it is all G#m.

Forgive me for my lack of music notation... i am still learning.
