Hi,

You can do an easier version of "Starwood in aspen"  in Em - capo on the second or third fret depending on your voice.

From memory chords are:

Em - A7 - D
G - D - G
Em - A7 - D - Bm
D - G - D
G - D (A7) - D

That last A7 is quick , ie the third beat  on the D strum goes to A7 and then back to D

A nice strum pattern in 3/3 is down, down , down, up - but note that the last "up" is a "flick back" and doesnt count as a beat.

I hope this helps!- it's a lovely song

Re: John Denver song???

Woops,

I checked and theres a slight mistake that I made in the Starwood in Aspen chords!

Third line should be :

G                   Em           D               Bm
"Long way home to starwood in aspen...."

ie. no A7 in that line!
