| I know there are "Dave chords", but are there any "Tim chords"? |
"Yo, I'm Cuban B!"
"Yes, Cuban B!" |

This really doesn't answer your question, but I don't really like the term "Dave/Tim chords" because it suggests that the person mentioned created the chord. Most of Matthews' chords that are credited to him come from some bluegrass source or something.
Anyways, there aren't really what you might call Tim chords. You might say there are Tim arpeggios, but he doesn't really repeat them in lots of songs in the sense that Matthews repeats his common shapes. |

| I love the chords in "Entity" when he basically does a Barre F and G with the B and High E strings open. Gives me the chills. |

Yeah I love those, I use em all the time. Shows up when he's playing Dancing Nancies with Dave too, sounds so good. |

| I can't forget the awesome end chords in Los Alamos, when he does the tremolo picking and the bassline too. Man, that part always blows my mind. Tim always blows my mind. |

oh yea, especially when he moves up to that higher part, sounds like 3 guitars

The chord in Entity is a great one too, that actually is a great example of a "tim chord". Diminished runs over chords are great too. |
