Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 6
            Getting Better -- The Beatles

This version is tailored for a single acoustic guitar.

C     = x32013
C/G   = 3x2013
Em    = 022003
Fadd9 = xx3213
G     = 320003

Note that playing C/G as noted above, the voicing is different and that's important.
Where C/G follows a G chord, strum the G chord and hammer on the E & C notes.
Your ring finger can provide the mute of the A string naturally by leaning it over
the A string as you reach fingers 1 and 2 to the B and D strings, respectively.
