These Days Are Numbered Chords
These Days Are Numbered by The Head And The Heart is a moderately challenging guitar song played in the key of C with a capo on the 2st fret. It uses the chords C/G, G, F and Am. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
The album chords are played without a capo, but if you can't sing in Charity's key I
suggest putting the
Capo on 2 for this one.
