Breakeven Acoustic chords by The Script
Guitar chords with lyrics
The chords are played with a capo on the third fret but the picking sounds like no capo. And no tabs really address that.. So this is how I do the picking combined with a capo.

# Some of the verse notes are played and octave higher because of the capo.
