OPTION ONE - using a capo

I would recommend using the voicings in the text
column numbers below.
Regarding the CHORD BOX DIAGRAMS please follow the
information at the bottom of the tab.

CAPO: 1st fret 
(Will then sound in the recorded key of Eb)

Chord names & fret positions are relative to the capo
D   = xx0232    Em   = 022000    A7    = x02223
D6  = xx0432    G *  = 355433    A7/C# = x42223
D7  = xx0212    G7   = 320001    A7/E  = xx2223
G   = 320003    D/F# = xx4232    G/D   = xx0003
G6  = 320000    D/A  = xxx232    Bm    = x24432
G/B = x20003                     N.C   = No chords

the page and select a star rating for my tab, thanks

For the GUITAR chord box diagrams to match my
suggested choices you need to manually select the
following choice of options by clicking on the
forward/backward arrows below seven of the diagrams
   D6         D/F#         A7         A7/E
<3 of 33>   <3 of 20>   <3 of 39>   <7 of 28>
          E6          E7          A6
       <2 of 50>   <7 of 47>   <2 of 44>

The remaining chord boxes can be the default first
option and don't need any reselecting
