What you are playing
Chords for two truths and a lie, laid out across its 3:20 exactly where they fall. Most of it sits in G major. Every shape in it is an open chord, so nothing here needs a barre. Every one of its 5 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.
Play it in another key
The same song, moved. Every row is two truths and a lie 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.
