What you are playing
Chords for Crimson Sky (Letra/Lyrics), laid out across its 3:13 exactly where they fall. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 1 the same song becomes A F E G Dm D C Am A♯ B Bm G♯ Em, which sits easier under the hand. Every one of its 13 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.

The same song, moved. Every row is Crimson Sky (Letra/Lyrics) shifted by that many semitones — useful when the recording sits too high or too low for your voice. The chords keep their relationships, so the song is unchanged apart from its pitch.

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.
