Variations
-----------------------------
- Use G#6 instead of G#7 for more jazzy atmosphere.
Both G#6 and G#7 works.
One of them is easier depending on your play style.
It's your choice to use G#6 instead of G#7 to give more jazzy atmosphere.
I recommend to try both finger positions below.

Motivation and referred tabs

This guitar tab aims at a song "Dream a little dream of me" by Laura Fygi.

chords in those two tabs and my own variations transcribed for the song by Laura Fygi.
