How to practise this song

Put your capo on fret 5
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.

Practise the barre chord F

Practise the change: F ↔ A

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
