**Capo on 1st fret** Here's alittle (x02210@1)Feist cover done by aband (x02210@1)called Bright Eyes. If you didn't read that marked note directly above this paragraph, this song IS in fact done with a capo on the fret. As usual, the chord names are relative to the capo, blah, blah... If you think fancy and want to use all barre chords and not use the capo, then fine. It's not though, as I have mentioned the useful using of a capo quite clearly. Stop reading this. the song now.
