Chords

IMPORTANT *These are the "advanced" chords you can hear in the song for the part before the bridge. The chords indicate which chord should be replaced with the chords voicings shown below. The chords however still work on their own as a simplified version. Notice the low E string is now Bb and this representation (of the advanced chord voicings) is WITHOUT THE CAPO.*
