The shapes are standard "Big G" variations that keep the pinky and ring fingers anchored:<ul><li>Intro/Verse: <code>G</code> — <code>Dsus4</code> — <code>Em7</code> — <code>Cadd9</code></li><li>Chorus: <code>Em7</code> — <code>D/F#</code> — <code>G</code> — <code>Cadd9</code> — <code>Dsus4</code> — <code>D</code></li></ul><h4 id="ec098e35-9910-45d2-a43b-a192b31ac77f" data-toc-id="ec098e35-9910-45d2-a43b-a192b31ac77f" style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.2;">Main Chord Shapes</h4>(All shapes relative to Capo 2.

This creates a pivot point that prevents the hand from getting "lost" on the fretboard and ensures the chords ring out with a consistent, shimmering drone.<h4 id="83a345ac-c353-4b78-9e2c-2efd4a507254" data-toc-id="83a345ac-c353-4b78-9e2c-2efd4a507254" style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.2;">Performance Tips for Students</h4><ul><li>The "Anchored" Technique: Keep your 3rd and 4th fingers on the 3rd fret of the B and high E strings throughout the verse. This makes the transition between G, Dsus4, and Cadd9 much smoother for beginners.</li><li>Strumming Pattern: A relaxed 6/8 feel works best. A solid starting pattern is: D - D - D-U - D - D.</li><li>The "Fire" Run: In the chorus, the vocal melody on "Fire..." actually moves through several chord changes (<code>Em7</code> to <code>D/F#</code> to <code>G</code>), which is a great exercise in timing.</li></ul><h4 id="dd68f04b-0b72-46b2-ae52-7b6966299f4d" data-toc-id="dd68f04b-0b72-46b2-ae52-7b6966299f4d" style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.2;">🚀 Want Faster Results?</h4>This tutorial will help you —but learning alone can still be slow &amp; challenging.If you want to:<ul style="margin-top: 0cm;"><li>Progress faster</li><li>Fix mistakes instantly</li><li>Stay motivated</li></ul>👉 Personalized guidance makes a huge difference.At GuitaRealm, we offer 1:1 beginner guitar lessons tailored to your goals and skill level.Consider trying out a lesson <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.guitarealm.com/en/live-guitar-lessons-booking-page/">@1:1 Live</a>
