Using a capo
You can change the key of the song by using a Capo. This is a common practice. It allows
you to play the simpler chords but change the key to suit your voice.
For example if you play the song in the key of G and put the Capo on the second fret you
can raise the song to the key of A. That's one whole step from G to A.
The Capo usually works best if you use it within the first four frets. After that the chords
sound very high pitched. Experiment a little and see what works best for you.
