saw the chorded version of this & made it better & took away the capo for those of
you who haven’t gotten around to buying one yet .
& i know it’s supposed to be played in drop C# & all that , but this is to make
things a bit easier for people .
now , i’d play this in all 5th chords [ or lazy barre chords ] because it sounds better that way .
