Topic: { a }

Hi All you experts,

I love John Denvers song " This  Old Guitar " I Have Taken the Chords and transposed them to suit myself!  How should this { a ]    be played ? It just does not sound right to me?  i have been given other chords but cannot manage them!  This is the only problem i have with it?
Now when you have all picked yourselves up off the floor from laughing!
  Can anyone Explain  this  to me please! "Thank You Chordians".

Re: { a }

There is also a version printed in TAB form. From that it looks like it may be X00020. I think it may be A7sus4. I don't really know the song either but, worst case scenario, I can only be wrong.
Keep messing about with it and I'm sure you'll find something that fits for you.

Is anything really made up of zeros and ones??

Hi Old Doll,

I have checked the version you copied from the Songs section and the reason you are struggling is that the chords are not correct. I have therefore put an amended version on My Songbook for you at:

It is in D but you can transpose it to G which is the key I think you want.
