Hey Kev,
What are the correct chords for "these are my mountains" and on which fret do you use your capo?
I desperately want to do a cover of this song, one of my favorites!
P.S.: I loved your performance as Frankie Mac in 16 years of Alcohol, very inspiring! Xx

i play in DADGAD tuning - and i usually play it in the key of E maj - 2nd fret capo
