The original key is G However, to get the "drony" type of sound in the original recording, you need to either tune DADGAD, and capo 5, or keep standard tuning and use a full capo on fret 3 and a cut capo on the ADG (#,3, #4 and #5) strings on fret 5. Ignore the chord images below from the Worship Chords system -- don't use them and don't pay attention to the red lettering indicating other chords. I will describe the fretting and string numbers to get a sound similar to the recording. Remember - do NOT use standard chord shapes for standard EADGBE tuning that have images below! To remind you -- if you do not have a cut capo turn to DADGAD tuning, and put full capo on fret 5. If you have a cut capo, do NOT re-tune, use a full capo on fret 3 and a cut capo on fret 5. Fret and string numbers are below. (Unfortunately the system will not let a contributor paste in images of the chord shapes.) String numbers: The #1 string is the highest sounding string (normally high E in standard tuning) and the #6 is the lowest sounding string (in standard tuning the low E string). G5 Fret 2, #3 string (For some of the song you will "hammer on" this string.) (Listen to the song to hear when they're doing the "hammer on.") G5/E: Fret 2: #3 and #5 strings. C5/E: Fret 2: #4 and #5 strings. C5/F: Fret 2: #4 string, fret 3, #5 string. Additional variant chords used in the chorus: G5+hi B: Fret 2: #3 and #1 strings. C5//F+hi C: Fret 2: #4 string, Fret 3: #5, #2 and #1 strings. It might help you to draw out the images for the chord shapes to get the chord shapes memorized. There are many online resources to print, search for "fretboards blank".
