This song is played in the Key of F, but the guitar that does the picking


plays with a Kapo on the 3rd Fret in the key of D


�


if you play F Bb C, play it open


if you play (D) (A)� (G), use a Kapo on the 3rd Fret� 


�


it sounds really good with two rhythm guitars one using a Kapo (3) and one open. I hope you enjoy this song I think it is one of the most well written songs that I have heard in a long time.
