Capo 5
Tuning: Open E (eBG#EBE) - How Martin Plays it
Standard (eBGDAE) - Simplified
(choose any)
Martin plays his guitar on Open E two steps down, so he has his capo on 7.
Since we're not two steps down, we've got our capo on 5. The Open E and
Standard tunings have the same progressions anyway, the only difference is
the fingerings. That means you could use either of the two tunings.

NOTE:
When switching from E to F#m, always hammer (for Open E) or slide (for
Standard Tuning). Watch the video if you don't get what I mean and to
know the strumming pattern and stuff.
