---------------------------------------------------
**this song sounds in the key of f minor. i have carpel tunnel syndrome and avoid
playing bar chords when i can, hence the capo.
additionally, playing this song with a capo, leads to, in my opinion, better voice
leading, and also, makes it easier to play the
chords and some of the solos simultaneously, which you can catch over at my youtube
channel. if you don't have a capo, ask
ultimate-guitar very nicely to transpose this up 1 half step.
