Here’s a simpler way to play this great song. With the capo I find it
easy to approximate the picking just by guessing. But if you want
the actual semi random picking patterns see the guitar pro file.
One tiny flaw in capoing this is that the D chord (actually F#) should
be played below the 4th fret to sound exactly like the album.
So to give it a lower sound I throw the bass A in there. The other
weird chords are below too. I tried my best with the chord names,
but I’m no music professor. Let me know if you have any corrections.
