Capo: 2
LET IT BE CLEAR, I'M NOT BASING THIS TAB OFF ANY KNOWN PERFORMANCE OF THE SONG. IT IS SIMPLY HOW I'VE PERSONALLY TRANSCRIBED IT AND FIND IT MUSICALLY ACCEPTABLE IN RESPECTS TO THE ORIGINAL. THE CAPO WAS MY OWN IDEA. ALL THE CHORD NAMES REFER TO THE FINGERINGS/POSITIONS, AS IF THEY WERE OPEN. SO WHEN I SAY F#5, ITS 244XXX STARTING AT THE CAPO BEING OPEN. PLEASE CONSIDER ALL THIS BEFORE RATING/COMMENTING.
