Now that most have heard this, has anyone pulled the chords for any of the songs? I have fallen and love with Three Drinks and might try to pull of a cover at the company shin-dig (they force people up to sing and play when drunk) this year if I can work this out - failing that I'll stick with Two Handed Handshake  |

Was thinking about the same thing. I don't remember from when I saw him live, but it seems like for the most part, the chord changes were less than most songs, heavy on D and G. Which doesn't mean much in terms of figuring out the songs, but it'll be where I start at.
Dennis and Billy should be the easiest one. I'm pretty sure it's something like:
DDDsus4D
DD D/A D
Super minimalistic.

I've been playing Newmeyer's Roof as:
Capo 1
Verse
D A D A
and at the 'doubting thomas' parts, it goes like this
E D A
I think it's enough to play through, although there are the chords and noodling layered overtop as well.

Just took a stab at three drinks. Maybe something like this will give you the main idea.
Capo 1
Verse
F F C C Bb C Bb C
Chorus
C F Bb C F G Bb F Bb C

Now that the 909 video for Newmyers' Roof is out and we can see mostly what Craig is doing, can anybody tell what his fingering is for the "Doubting Thomas" part? He stays up on the neck, and seems to only be changing a few fingers, but I can't quite figure it out and the camera always cuts away just before/cuts to right afterward.

Pretty sure it's just the chords above (Which are relative to the capo so really F Eb Bb). And then I think he's just letting the b string ring. I don't think anything changes, he just switches up the voicings.

Oh, it's definitely same chords as above. I just can't figure out what the voicing is. It doesn't seem to be a conventional chord shape, and it doesn't sound like any voicing I've tried so far.
And yeah I could play any voicing to make it work, I'm always trying to learn new ones. The frustrating thing is, it's probably really simple.
