Another of A R Rahman’s excellent composition which is completely based on an acoustic guitar.
Most people think the chords are A & D which is correct. But here are some minor changes & tips that will make it sound exact. Its easy, try it!!

- TIP #1
The Chords are A and Dadd9 (means include the E note) - TIP #2
the last line chord just before the line KYON SEHTE RAHE is Amaj7 - TIP #3
For this song, the best way to get the same original feel is to use a CAPO on 2nd fret
and play A (like the open G with D note – Pink Floyd style G chord)
and then play the D (like open C with D note – Pink Floyd style Cadd9)
The chord positions are given below.
