===================================================== For all the GUITAR chord box diagrams to better match my suggested choices you need to manually select the following choice of options by clicking on the forward/backward arrows beneath seven of the diagrams. The other chord boxes should be the default first option and don't need any reselecting. As long as you are logged into your account, these choices will be saved automatically for every time you view this tab. Am9 Am7 Bm7 D/F# <6 of 16> <3 of 46> <2 of 31> <3 of 20> E/G# F Em7 <3 of 23> <2 of 16> <6 of 49> Just for variety I use two inversions of Am7 in my tab, (differentiated by an asterisk in my chord legend) but unfortunately there is no facility to save both variations as chord boxes, so you will have to choose one of them. Am7 * or Am7 <11 of 46> <3 of 46>
