Chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)
My Recommendation to sound most similar (by my ear) to the acoustic version is to put the capo on the 1st fret
and play the intro chords in the following way:
C minorCm Bb majorBb Abmaj7Abmaj7 G+G

BB|--4----3----1-----3--
G+G|--5----3----1-----4--
D MajorD|--5----1----1-----5--
