Mac Demarco - Ode To Viceroy
Please note that this isn't mean't to be exactly the same as the original song,
It's how I play it on acoustic guitar. It doesn't fit the melody, it does fit the lyrics.
Capo 2 is the best way to go if you want it to sound like the original. I prefer Capo 5.
Just place the capo where ever you want it to be and enjoy!
