nice, why do you use a capo on the second fret?

[mikedevelta]

You could play without a capo, just drops a whole tone. Matter of taste and in some instances playability.

That;s exactly now I figured out how to play day tripper. I played lowly and figured out which note would come next and exactly when the note would be played. I didn't realise that tommy played the 3rd fret on the B string so I used to just play the open E string. It took me ages to learn it with the open in and the 3rd fret B because I had to learn to use different fingers for different strings. I have got it down now.

Yeah, the pulse is like a crotchet while your trying to play syncopated eigth notes as a melody over the top, takes great co-ordination, nice job.
