ThreeChordGuitar.com: How to play "A pirate looks at 40" (Jimmy Buffett)

[amoskowitz0103]

Chords are wrong dude! Try playing F#m after the Em instead of the G. It's going to sound a little strange because of the way you are capo'd. In the original (key of G), the Am chord (which is really Am7) slides up two frets (giving you a weird chord - we'll call it Gmaj13/no 3rd because we are in G, but you can also call it Em11/no 5th. What you are playing sounds OK, but if you really take the time to learn the nuances of the covers that you do, you'll see that people will respond much better.

thanks for this lesson. Great job ! all the tabs i found were off. I used your chords and its sounds great. I think its close to Jack Johnson's cover version if capo is on the 5th fret

Hey Mojo,

Thanks so much for doing this lesson. I picked it up real fast. Very easy song to play. I tried it with the capo on the 4th fret and that seems to work well with my voice as well. Thanks again for this lesson.
