Capo 3 Guitar Songs
Popular guitar songs you play with a capo on fret 3.
These 115 popular guitar songs are played with a capo on the 3rd fret. A capo lets you keep easy open-chord shapes while raising the pitch to match the original key or your voice, so songs that would otherwise need barre chords stay beginner-friendly. Try The Dam, Tokyo Girl, and Dance Me To The End Of Love to start; every song page also lets you transpose if you'd rather move the capo.
