Capo: 2.
This version of the song has appeared elsewhere on the internet, I've just posted it here so the correct version as the artist plays it is on UG. I play it in open D tuning with a Capo on 2. Muffling the bar A and B chords in the intro and first verse help give the rhythm to the song. Listen to the song and you'll figure it out :) Chord Shapes : All chords relative to capo --------------- E A B Aadd2/E E7sus4 A6 B6 E5 Emaj7 D---0----5----7----0----------0------5----7-----0----0---------------| A---0----5----7----0----------0------5----7-----0----0---------------| F#--0----5----7----1----------1------5----7-----3----3---------------| D---0----5----7----0----------0------5----7-----0----0---------------| A---0----5----7----2----------3------7----9-----5----4---------------| D---0----5----7----0----------0------5----7-----0----0---------------| Intro : ------- A A6 A A6 A B B6 B B6 B E Aadd2/E E7sus4 Aadd2/E E Aadd2/E E Aadd2/E E Aadd2/E E7sus4 Aadd2/E E Aadd2/E E Verse : --------
