I really wanted to learn this song and found the other chord chart on here to be really
well done, the only thing with it was it has a capo. And to make it sound right you had
place the capo on the 8th fret which made it kinda hard to play. So I transposed it so
you can play it with the same sound as the classic crime, but without the capo(It uses
barre chords but that's nothing too bad).
