chords that were up a whole step from what they sounded (i.e., playing a Dmaj position but
Cmaj coming out, or Bmin fingering makes an Amin chord), so he probably used an alternative
tuning. These chords are exact to the music, though, and will match just fine. Is there such
thing as an up-F# tuning? F#-B-E-A-C#-F#? Probably requires very light-gauge strings!
