Ooh Child – The Five Stairsteps
CAPO 1
Adapted / simplified a little to play on acoustic guitar, from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrotsEzgEpg
and using the version at https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/five_stairsteps/ooh_child_chords_68502
***************************************
Chords used in this song. Note the G is played as a "full" G with the D string at 3

***************************************
The key changes in this song between the Verse/Interlude and Chorus.
My best guess is that A as the core key (it resolves at A at the end), but the chorus switches to C or Am.
Of course, it's capoed at 1, so technically that's A# for the verse, and C#/Am# for the chorus.
**** Walk-down played in last bar of the intro
