What you are playing
Chords for Misfits [Acoustic Cover by Joel Goguen], laid out across its 1:34 exactly where they fall. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 4 the same song becomes G E C G♯ D Em, which sits easier under the hand. Every one of its 6 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.
