What you are playing
Chords for 1986 - Adesso Tu, laid out across its 3:58 exactly where they fall. Most of it sits in F minor. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 1 the same song becomes Em C G Am D B F♯m E Bm D♯ G♯ Fm C♯ A♯m Gm, which sits easier under the hand. Every one of its 15 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.

On a guitar there is a shortcut in one direction: transpose down by n and put a capo on fret n, and you are back at the original pitch while playing the easier shapes. That is what the capo line above is doing.
