Free Fallin' big guitar
I believe there are two acoustic guitars, one capoed on the second fret played in D (key of E) and one with no capo played in E. This gives Tom two different inversions of the same chord, almost sounding like two different chords seperately. This gives him a much "bigger" sound, with one guitar having a lot of body (the one with no capo) and one with a ton of brilliance (the one that is capoed on the second fret). We only have one guitarist at church and when we play this song on sunday mornings we debate about how it should be played, since the guitar with the capo can do sus chords a lot easier, and does it on the album, but doesn't sound as full, and the guitar with out a capo sounds fuller but can't easily put those higher notes that are crutial to the familiarity of the song with the first few strums of the guitar. Do you follow me?
