VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
There are two different voicings each for the
A7 and D chords and three variations of the G/D chord
the appropriate ones identified with asterisks.
 
FINE TUNING:
It's likely the tapes were sped up fractionally at the
final mixing stage, making the original album track
quite sharp. To closer match this pitch use a chromatic
tuner and tune all the strings up by +25 cents above
standard pitch, otherwise your guitar will sound a
little flat in comparison.
 
Alternatively,
use a live version that is in standard pitch.

Here Roger has a capo on the 1st fret, but is clearly
already tuned down a half-step, so his capo is just
there to bring it back up to standard pitch again,
a very common practise when using 12 string guitars
to take a bit of pressure off of the neck.
