This is George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord" off of his 1971 album "All Things Must Pass".
This is the first time I've ever done a tab, so bear with me. No, seriously though, I DO
believe this is correct and you don't even need a capo for this version, plus, you can
even play this on a piano, as well. I wanted to make sure that all of George's fans could
have a correct tab of this song, so here's my interpretation of it, enjoy! (if there's
something wrong with it, let me know at jack_kashmir_tuesday@yahoo.com)

Guys, you can atleast use this one for the times when you don't have a capo handy... Great one mate, Live Forever George Harrison.

The chords are right good but if you capo the 2nd fret I think thats how george plays but either way sounds right :)

This is the correct key, I learned the song years ago using the F#m barre chord. I didn't own a capo until many years later. But playing the real chord or capo it is a great sounding chord. Thanks for sharing this.
