You will need to use a capo for this song in order to play in the same key as the original. If you don’t have a capo, you can still play this song, with these same chord shapes, but just move them all down 3 frets. You will now be playing in a different key, but it will work fine if you want to just play the song by yourself without the original recording. This can also work well if the original key of the song is too high for your voice; by moving the capo lower or removing it completely, you lower the key of the song.
