G is the stacked version (using both your ring finger and pinky on the bottom two strings at the third
fret) of the G major chord and G2 is just the normal G major chord. This should be pretty accurate,
please rate. Thanks.

Want them fighting with each other

Over who’s gonna get to work with me

At a sold out show

And I’d do just about anything to make it so

I’ll show you where I draw mine
