before the question i would like to announce today's joyous occasion, i bought my first capo *sniffle sniffle anyway so when i got home i immediately started learing to play stay or leave, and i was goin good until i saw the bar chord that is played when the song goes "remember when..." when dave said remember, i said "dammit dammit dammit" because i couldnt play the chord because on my guitar the fretboard connects to the body at the 14th fret, and wouldnt you know, i cant play the bastard, so my question is, is there an alternate chord or anything else that would sound decent that i can play until i get my new guitar, which i also found out will have a cutaway...

standard tab without capo or the tab for the raised B with a capo on 7.

i know what your saying. you can't play the bar chord in the 8th fret. its just a C chord so you can play either of these:

Code: Select all

  B:---8------3-----0---
  F#:--8------5-----1---
  D:---9------5-----0---
  A:---10-----5-----2---
  E:---10-----3-----3---
  B:---8----------------

EDIT: i was just playing around and i found a way to do the Lead Into "Remember we used to...". instead of slideing all the way to 9, just use your middle finger on the A sting to slide to 5 then use your pinky to play 8 on the b string. woo, thats so much easier with a capo.

seth, what they're saying is there is a standard tuning tab, no capo needed. I know both raised b and standard, both are awesome..
