Lover Of The Light Chords
I'm just showing the chords for people who don't want to play this with a capo.
Personally, I don't think putting a capo on the second fret is necessary to play
this song, for it doesn't make any of the chords easier. Also, I play an A/C# as
x4222x (I assume the rest of the chords are self-explanatory).
