James Otto - Where Angels Hang Around (capo) Chords

James Otto - Where Angels Hang Around

Closest I could get to play as recorded without tuning down the whole guitar

Tuning:

Capo 2
All chords relative to the capo
I prefer the sound of the bottom 2 strings always ringing

Some chords that might be odd...

(E/Ab)  4-2-2-1-0-0
E/Eb  0-8-11-11-0-0

and I'd play the E before the E/Eb as
E     0-9-11-11-0-0
