This one is two frets higher in the key of A but too high for my vocal so my lesson here is in G, Cmaj7, Em, Am, A7, D, D#m, G7 and a C. You can play a down down up down down up down up rhythm pattern for the verse and a down down down up for the chorus. A few picking riffs here in standard tuning but a capo 2nd would be the original key. I left out the half step key change near the end.
