Right Handed Charts:







Please Note: You can play E instead of Eadd9, although it does add a nice touch. You may want to mix them up a bit.
G#m7 can be replaced with G#m - see what you think.
For some of you, it may be easier - especially if you are finger-picking to play in A Major with chords A, E, F#m7, D. If you are playing with the video, you will need to place a capo on the 2nd fret.
