Capo: 2

Aaron Watson "Off the Record" Note: After the intro, the whole song is played by a guitar/mandolin duet. While the guitar predominantly playes Am (where notated), the mandolin tends to play Am7 adding a subtle effect, so feel free to use the two A chords interchangably. capo: 2nd fret Intro: G Em Am7 D G Em Am7 D Cadd9 Verse 1:
