~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HARD WAY - Sounds like the original, if you're able to do it...
Same as the easy way, with the following changes:
0x6200 E
X46200 C#m
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE BEST WAY - Put a 345- partial capo on the second fret. This is
how I play it. (I think Derek actually does it tuned DGDGAD, capo 2.)
Sounds like the original AND is easy to play. Same picking pattern:
ox40oo E | # = any string fingered # frets above the capo
x240oo C#m | 0 = capoed string not fingered
x022oo B | o = uncapoed string not fingered
3x00oo A | c = uncapoed string fingered at same fret as the capo
2x4222 G#m | x = any string not played
cx00oo F#m
