Note: To make the chorus easier to play, switch the placement
of your third and fourth fingers. (Play the B string, third fret,
with your pinky. Play the e string, third fret, with your ring
finger.) This will make the modified Cadd9 easier to switch to.
It might be uncomfortable at first, but the added beauty of the
root G to the Cadd9 makes up for it! :)
