Description
"I Will Follow You Into the Dark" features just a single acoustic guitar with the capo on the fifth fret. I have medium gauge strings on the acoustic to help with the percussive attack that is heard all throughout the song, and I'm using my fingers to pick and play the rhythms.
You will be using your thumb to play the bass notes of the chords, and a combination of your first three fingers to both strum and finger pick the upper parts of the chords.
While I will mention what the chords are actually called without using a capo, I will refer to the chord shapes as they refer to open position as well. This will help you connect what the chords actually are using the shapes you already know.
