Love Cant Break The Spell
View chords used in this chart
Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste:
2nd traste
Capo 2
Whenever you see a D/F#, that's a passing chord between G and Em.
I wrote it out as a full chord but all you really need is the F#
(low E string 2nd fret). You can hear it pretty clearly in the recording.
