What you are playing
Chords for I Got a Feeling, laid out across its 3:16 exactly where they fall. Most of it sits in F major. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 3 the same song becomes D G Bm A, which sits easier under the hand. Every one of its 4 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.
