SHAMANDALIE ACOUSTIC
*Note* this version is virtually identical to the other chord version on this site-
- I found it much easier to play with a capo. It's also worth nothing that I make a quick
change in for the bridge, and right back afterwards. It's not a difficult switch, and
happens in places that have a good 2-4 seconds. Have fun!
