To me, the beginning, that wonderful 2 part driving beat sounds like it’s
dominated by the bass guitar in the actual version, and so I feel this 3 finger
plucked Fc D5 is the best interpretation from an acoustic/rhythm guitar. If you’re
an advanced player, play this then make the tricky change to Bb…....
For mere mortals** – just play F instead of Fc D5.
(PS – there is no such chord as Fc – I’ve just made that one up. – for the
purists, it is still technically an F as it has the 1,3 and 5 in it – so to
distinguish it from the full 6 string strum F, I’ve called it Fc. )
** Or try one of the following:
Put a Capo on Fret 1 and substitute:
E shape for F
A shape for Bb
B shape for C (ie barred on the actual 3rd fret A shape)
F# shape for G (ie barred on the 3rd fret E shape)
or easier still, put a capo on Fret 3 and substitute:
D shape for F
G shape for Bb
A shape for C (ie barred on the actual 3rd fret A shape)
E shape for G (ie barred on the 3rd fret E shape)
