either +4 or -1 worked really well for me and I have a tiny hand.
Is it just me or does Ab sounds awkwardly off?
-1
-3 is best for my lower voice
I prefer +4, it’s easier to sing this way!
This song hurt my voice a bit. Also, if you want to do Dd for -1 it is hard to do it with the capo. I just changed it to D.
For the GRAMMY version, do -1 but without a capo. Sounds amazing
I do the traditional island strum for this songs which is: UUDUDU
Love you all! <3
transpose -1 and put the capo on fret 3.
On the line “He’s so bad but he does it so well”, I prefer playing D instead of G, and during the bridge I prefer Em to G, such as in “You see me in hindsight.”
