suggest use a sliding capo for this, as the 2 verses are played with capo 3 on and choruses with capo off. Hence verse 1 capo 3 Choruses (2) both with capo off. verse 2 capo 3. Then for the rest (all choruses) capo off. Tip slider capo will work easier with a spray of lube on the fret and the back. Good Luck.!! |
