Videos: Experienced Level

Castaway
Suggested by Jonathan. You'll notice the player in this video is playing G>C>D7 with a capo on the 2nd fret, which means he's playing the song in A. The original is in G# (or Ab—different name for the same key). Do we want to play in G#? I didn't think so.
That's All
Suggested by Tracy. A lovely song, and a relaxing song (we hope) to play and sing at the end of a long day.
We already know alternate versions of some of these chords.
