What you are playing
Chords for O Ry Kala Ratsy Ty, laid out across its 3:06 exactly where they fall. Most of it sits in C major. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 5 the same song becomes Am G Em D C, every one of them an open shape. Every one of its 5 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.
