I've seen Ed playing this with capo on 2, his guitar tuned a semi-tone down and
playing bar-chords. For the ease of playing, I've written down open chords, this
is the CORRECT version.
Tuning: Standard (if you want to play along with the record, put your capo on 1)
Chords used:
Am F(maj7) C/G Dm G
e--0----1(0)----0----1----3----|
B--1----1-------1----3---(3)---|
G--2----2-------0----2----0----|
D--2----3-------2----0----0----|
A--0----3-------3----x----2----|
E--x----x-------3----x----3----|
Intro:
Lick:
If you start with the C/G chord, you can slide with your pinky from 3 to 4.
A|-3--------0--|
E|----3/4------|
later on:
A|-3---2---0--|
E|------------|
You can alternate these :)
Am F(maj7) C/G C/G
Verse:
