Capo: 2 Tuning: E A D G B E
Song: Save Your Love Artist: James Bay Key (original): A major Key (capo 2): G major Video source: https://youtu.be/PJcMQIvN7ek I have tabbed this song using the 'Live from Abbey Tavern' video above as a source. The chords listed below are all relative to the Capo placed on the 2nd fret when using standard E tuning (EADGBE). Place the Capo on the 4th fret when using classic James Bay tuning - i.e., standard D tuning (DGCFAD). FYI, this is the same tuning that James Bay uses in the video above and in some of his previous songs (e.g., Let It Go). In the intro, James Bay uses a 'pluck and chuck' strumming technique (see also Stop This Train by John Mayer). It will require you to learn how to slap the guitar while simultaneously strumming with your forefinger. It's a very difficult strumming technique to master but very satisfying when you are able to pull it off... Speaking of which, James Bay adds a bunch of hammer-ons and pull-offs during the song. Best thing to do is to listen closely and try to figure it out yourself. Imitation is, after all, the best form of flattery!!
