Masterpiece

Meg & Dia - Masterpiece

Something Real, 2006

Doghouse Records

This is what I would assume the song sounds like.

Standard tuning (EADGBE)

Capo: 4

Original song would be E,B,C#m,A, and G#m chords without the capo.

I made it somewhat easier by adding the capo on 4 and using C,G,Am,F, and Em chords instead.

Enjoy.
