# NOTES:
changing from Am > Cmaj9/E > C/G I put some emphasis on the A-string notes
to represent what's played by the strings on the recording;
similarly within the F > Fmaj7 > G sequence I put emphasis on the
lower E-string notes
This is quite easy with the strumming pattern noted here
I'm playing the following chords here:
Am 002210
Cmaj9/E 020013 (thanks 2 UGMKZ for hinting that one)
C/G 332010
F 133211
Fmaj7 033211
G 320033
Dm x00231
