So you can play this song two ways. You can do just simple D, Cadd9, G, and F...
or you can do the bar chords for these notes which are
D Cadd9 G F
-x---x---x---x
-x---x---x---x
-7---5---x---x
-7---5---5---3
-5---3---5---3
-x---x---3---1
Personally i think bar chords sound a lot better with this song. Other than that
no capo and standard tuning.
