Make Your Own Kind of Music Chords & Guitar Lesson
Welcome to my Make Your Own Kind of Music chord chart by Cass Elliot. I'm going to be using a Capo on the 2nd fret to eliminate all of the barre chords.
If you still see the F#m barre chord, don't worry, you can simply use an A major chord on the bottom three strings.
Watch the lesson video below to see how!
