None of them
RED
As recorded by Jesse Welles
(2025 release)
Capo 5th fret
Jesse does little flourishes from G to G6add9 back to G and Fmaj7 to Csus4 back to Fmaj7.
They're easy little one finger lifts despite the scary chord names.
Play these as you feel them. I've only noted a few places where he adds them.
