• Capo on 5th

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Intermediate

The (D/F#) is played as a quick chord between the any chord and the G. So every time a G is played it is
usually transitioned into by a (D/F#).

(D/F#)
e|---2---|
B|---3---|
G|---2---|
D|---0---|
A|---0---|
E|---2---|

There is also random picking that you play with and lifted chord fingers for different sounds but you get
the idea :)
