***CAPO 6th fret***
I'm pretty sure the fingerpicking goes as follows:
For Am chord For F chord
e --------------------------------- e ---------------------------------- |
B ----1--------1--------1--------1- B ----1--------1--------1--------1-- |
G --2--------2--------2--------2--- G --2--------2--------2--------2---- |
D 2--------2--------2--------2----- D 3--------3--------3--------3------ |
A --------------------------------- A ---------------------------------- |
E --------------------------------- E ---------------------------------- |
For C chord For G chord (with a slight variation of the
second fret, D string during the chorus)
e -------------------------------- e --------------------------------- |
B ----1--------1--------1--------1 B ----0--------0--------0--------0- |
G --0--------0--------0--------0-- G --0--------0--------0--------0--- |
D 2--------2--------2--------2---- D 0--------0--------2--------0----- |
A -------------------------------- A --------------------------------- |
E -------------------------------- E --------------------------------- |
Personally I like it alot more playing the chords all the way through but it's you choice!
