Hi, I posted this last month as well.
The one change that should be noted is that every E
chord that you list is realy Em (E minor).

Amazing song.

Dude! Thanks for that! I've always wanted those. I always just play E G C Em just cause I didn't know the real chords.

Thanks

Another version to add to the collection

Guitarists, try playing The Ballad on a 6-string banjo - sounds cool
