the first chord in this song is C [though approximately 24 cents flat or possibly tuned to 432 Hz] ,not G. transpose to C and you're golden,really surprised that 116 people have given this 5 stars and not one person caught this before.

Love it baby! This is an epic classic from a band that was often overlooked!

Chords are spot on, but instead of playing with a capo on 4, tune down a half step, which better reflects the melody :)
