I've been trying to learn contact. I know the chords are C dm7 & G. When Ive watched Trey play it live, it seems that he;s playing higher on the fretboard. Looks like between 5th & 9th frets. Anyone have any insite on this? Rhythm will be tricky on this too. Any help, or know of a better video to watch for help on this song?
I think it'll be a pretty sweet song on the acoustic

I woke up one morning in November and I realized I loved you
It's not your headlights in the front, your tailpipe or the skyline above you
It's the way you cling to the road when the wind tries to shove you (with "oooh's")
I'd never go driving away and come back home without you (with "ahh's")
