thats why it says capo 1 mate.
thats the same as tuning up a semi tone
use a capo so you dont ruin the neck.
and 1 note...its a semi tone, not a tone

Good job. But this part of the song is wrong:
Bm Em
She hides like a child
G A7 D
But shes always a woman to me
It should be:
Bm Bm/A (just lift your index finger off)
She hides like a child
G A7 D
But shes always a woman to me

Hello guys,
Thanks for all the replies!
To clear things up, these are the correct chords for the chorus
Chorus:
Bm E E7 A DMaj7
Ohhh.. she takes care of herself
G Em
She can wait if she wants
A7 D D7
Shes ahead of her time
DMin7 G7 C Am
Ohhh.. and she never gives out
Bb E
And she never gives in
E7 A A7
She just changes her mind
**where:
Dmaj7: xx0222
Dmin7: xx0211
Again, I don't know why ultimate guitar put "DM7" instead of "Dm7" in the "Ohhh.." part of the chorus. Must be a bug.
