LEAST COMPLICATED (Emily Saliers) --------------------------------- [Emily plays this in A with no capo; Amy plays it in G with a capo on the second fret. Note that I wrote down Amy's chords, even though in the intro, and in parts of the first verse and last verse, Amy doesn't even play (that's why those chords are in parentheses). So, if you want to play Emily's chords, transpose everything up a whole step. Emily's picking pattern for the intro and first and last verse is at the end.]
[Each chord is half a measure. I think Amy plays C/G as 3x2013.]
[You can play the melody in the mandolin parts by playing G7 (320001) instead of G; use your index finger and pinky to find the melody.]
