The other chord version that's up here is some way off. For starters it's in B and not A
the capo in my version. Anyway, this may not be completely precise (I've decided use an
variation on the fifth (7th) fret instead of straight A) but it's simple enough and
nice on an acoustic. Play around with it and see what you think.

You're absolutely right that it's in 'straight A' but I just thought that Aadd9 (577600) and Amaj9 (477600) give a richer sound when playing the song solo on an acoustic. Just my opinion. Thanks for your comment :)

whats with the Aadd9 crap its just a staight A and on the courus is either a straigh B or a Bm depending on the tone of your voice, why make it harder and sound bad i just dont get it, it's an easy and very pleasent song to play dont, confuse things
