Regina Spektor - Back Of A Truck chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
Depends on your range, but to me it sounds better with a capo over the first fret.
You can play the same chords either way. Strum twice at parts if you have to.
Regina is my favorite favorite artist, enjoy!
Verses will all play the same

She was the mother superior with her carry-on luggage charms

Back for more
