Originally in D, I play in G capo 3
Highest note that matters is the #4 (that’s the 4 after the key change: “*crum*bles when you are not near”)

Games, changes, and fe | ars |
Hard stop on the second “will”
Am7 | |

This key change makes the guitar a lot less fun, so it’s OK to just not do the key change
