Careful Chords

(ver. 1)
Will Young
Have only seen Will Young perform this on a V Festival solo piece at 

It's a beautiful rendition of an overlooked classic originally by Horse.

The chords are very simple, with the same structure for all sections - intro, outro,
verse and chorus. However, the vocal melody changes for the chorus. Simple, but brilliant,
I am sure you will agree!!

The tuning standard but dropped a half-tone for Will's voice, so the chords and shapes
assume you have dropped a semitone. It's played fingerstyle, and the top E string is
rarely sounded on this version, hence the x's!

Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
