    This song is quite popular but the live version is too drawer

    Anyway the chord are available for the radio recorded version and its pretty close. I think it's a bit off all the same. The live version sounds way different and when I use the chords from ultimate guitar they don't sound right at all. Maybe the tuning is different. Anyway. The song is Hollywood forever cemetery sings by father John misty.

    Attached is a link to the video of the version in question. Any help would be great. Thanks. Enjoy the song too :)

    hey, here's the main verse chords to start you off....
    (no capo!)
    Bbm/Db/Fm/Eb/Db

    (FJM has capo on third fret and 'ultimate guitar' says 2nd fret, personally I think the FIRST fret makes the most sense and play the above chords thus.....
    (capo first fret))
    Am/C/Em/D/C

    get back to me if you want help with the rest

    FJM is in an open tuning (dropped D of some sort) hence the different capo placement, which one I don't know.
