Elton John - Your Song
Although there are already 6 different versions of this song here (Ver2 actually
contains 2 separate versions), I don't think any of them have got it exactly
right, so here's my effort.
The song is, of course, in the key of E-flat Major (as in Ver3), so you need a
capo on the 1st fret in order to play it in D Major. However, I find that it's
much easier to play it in C major (i.e. Capo 3), because, for example,
whereas Am/F# is quite easy to play, Bm/G# is beyond my poor skills!
Nevertheless I've also included the chords for D major, to make my version
easier to compare with the other versions of the song.
