Acoustic Version Standard Tuning Capo II This is how he plays it on the acoustic as near as I can tell. D D/F# G G5/F# Dmaj7 Bm Asus2 A Em Emadd9 |---2------2------3------3------2------2------0------0------0------0---| |---3------3------3------3------3------3------0------2------0------0---| |---2------2------0------0------2------4------2------2------0------0---| |---0------0------0------0------0------4------2------2------2------2---| |---x------0------2------x------4------2------0------0------2------x---| |---x------2------3------2------0-----(2)-----x------x------0------2---| Note: The Asus2 basically starts as an Asus2 then a hammer on string 2, fret 2 (C#)which makes it an A, but I wrote it as an Asus2 to differentiate it from the pure A chords.
