Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is my first Chord submission. I sussed this out by listening and watching Rocky play it on youtube.
I thought he always tuned 1/2 step down, but in this case, he must have been tuned down a full step.
His capo was on the 7th fret, but mine was on the 5th to be in tune with him. That being said, if you are
in standard tuning, you will play this with your capo on 5th.
Anyway, this song is the final track on Hospital Handshakes(2015)
I loved it and wanted to play it, but I couldn't find the chords.
With respect to capo

D 232000
B/C 010020 (Where this exists, you are walking down from C to Am) I don't know how to annotate this.
F#/D 232002
A combination of strumming and finger picking.
There are various hammer ons and pull offs.
You need to listen for these.
