If You're Reading This
Performed by Tim McGraw
Capo 4th Fret

I am not sure if this is exactly how they play it, but it sounds more precise 
than just using the base chords.  

Since the neck is capoed, these are really representative of the chord formations 
rather than the actual chords (sound) being produced.  You probably already 
realize that but it was worth meantioning anyway.

            G11   Cmaj7 Dsus2   G~
I'm already home.



Note: There is a little bit of picking on the Dsus2 prior to the chorus and 
within the chorus that you can feel out.  It is basically done on the high E 
string by hammering on the F# note to make the chord a solid D and then pulling 
off back to a Dsus2.  There is also a little extra picking in the 
intro/bridge/outtro riff that is too hard for me to try to describe here.  It is 
mainly on the 4th string of the G11.
