The Sun Is In Your Eyes

Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: F#Capotraste: 4th traste open tuning: DAEGAd! capo on 4 based on the video "Jacob Collier - The Sun Is In Your Eyes (live from TED)" from April 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC9XUeBq02w ! if you want to play along to the voice memo version published in Jan 2021, put your capo on 3, as it is a semi-tone lower. The chord structure is a bit simpler there too though, so it will not quite sound the same. the entire song consists of always evolving, glistening arpeggios based on the following 13 chord shapes - sometimes plucked, sometimes hammered-on or pulled-off, sometimes all strings are used, sometimes not. chord shapes in open tuning (but relative to capo): 1.
