What you are playing
Chords for A Bar Song (Tipsy), laid out across its 2:53 exactly where they fall. Most of it sits in A major. It leans on barre chords — with a capo on fret 2 the same song becomes Em G C, every one of them an open shape. Every one of its 3 chords is a plain triad, so three notes under the right hand covers the whole song.
