fantastic !!!!! thank you so much for this usefull video ! :) i always wondered if i was playing in the exact original key from the radio as fastball by putting my capo on the second fret of my guitar when playing these chords shapes and when playing this type of chord progression for this particular song, and now i have my answer ! thank you so much ! you are a great big help ! :)
Yes, that's because when you put on the CAPO the standard way to write chords is according to their shape, as the CAPO is the new open position. Thus, even though the chord is F# major, we write "E major Capo 2nd fret". Here is more data on this: nationalguitaracademy.com/capo-chart/
Yeah, I get that, but why not simply say which chords are the ones actually sounding and let users decide whether they are going to use a capo or barre chords? Personally, I never use capos, I prefer playing barre chords.
Ah, if you never use Capos see the other link I put in the description. If you want to use Barre Chords it's a bit more thought involved but you can do it. It's actually really good learning exercise and can help you change the key to any song if you start doing this. For this song you have to move everything up one whole step/whole tone (two frets). E minor becomes F# minor, etc. Most of the chords are straightforward and easy to move up 2 frets and it becomes a barre chord. Only the B7 which becomes C#7 may be a little different but you can see it here: www.totalguitarandbass.com/system/diagrams/317/original/C_7.png?1471408172 Good luck and cheers.
Helmut, this is the standard way of charting chords with a capo. Just because you prefer certain things doesn't make em the standard. The way he has em in the video is exactly how they should be charted. Everything else is personal preference.
OK. I never played with a capo and I think it's the first time I have come across chords being charted with a capo, so I hope you'll understand why I found it disorienting. Excuse me.

Happy to help!
It's perfect! Don't listen to those guys who took a few music lessons 15 years ago.
Good one! Nice job!
thanx for share,
Welcome!
A TOCAR GUITARRA !!!
I want high tone songs please
I want higher pitched please
I'll see what I can do. I mostly write original music. See my playlist: th-cam.com/video/dhREsMhn0s0/w-d-xo.html
You are saying "original key" and you are giving the chords two semitones below.
