Chords with lyrics

CALEB- Sonata Arctica
Acoustic version by sinForge xJp

Standard tuning, Capo 2, 4, 5 & 6 (Changes where indicated)

*I know.. 4 capo positions is a bit much, and I DID try to at least avoid the
 switch to 5 in the middle.. Unfortunately, there wasn't a good-sounding way
 around it.. But honestly, none of the moves are really that much hassle =)
 Also, in the actual song, the guitar is pretty stationairy in the verses, and
 all the tonality is in the keyboards.. so I considered the tonality when
 doing the verse.. I've also MAPPED OUT the chords for a change =D Enjoy!!
