semi proud of myself. Like you William, I have a terrible ear for music. That's partly why I subscribe to GT. I'd never be able to learn a song by ear, I need to be shown. However, I could tell almost immediately that the opening chord was played using a capo. It sounded like an open chord, but was way to high. I lost patience and don't own a capo, so looked up the internet. I think it's placed on the 3rd fret. Now try and find the chord. :)
