@Bob Tigges – It looks like the chart elsewhere you are referencing advises the key you should play in to sound in the original key – i.e.: “Capo at the 2nd fret and play in ‘G’ to sound like the original key of ‘A’ “.

My chart takes the opposite approach: “Continue to play in the key of ‘C’ but capo at the 2nd fret to sound in ‘D’ ” and so on. It might help in you provide a link to the alternate chart but I hope this explanation is correct and helpful.

I am confused. I have seen two different type of Capo Tranposition Charts. One like is shown here and another that is completely different. Here is the one that is different from the one shown. KEY Capo Fret # 1 2 3 4 5 6 etc. A G F E B A G C B A G D C B A

Cool! I thought a simple chart like that could be useful and I had not seen one before.
