**** good song. I play it with a capo on the 5th fret.
Simple song chords and i love this style of music, as a relative beginner at guitar and finding out that it’s alot easier to play while using a capo… I’m leaning more towards this sound of bluegrass/ country/ mountain/ bluesy music…i play with a capo on the fourth fret…
