is there an easier way to play the E chord, it'd kindo of difficult to change so quickly although, i am starting to get the hang of it more, i can't help but to wonder if there is a better or an easier way

About this song: Jocasta

An emotion evoking song about the way the world finds its own way to be lovely and keep on going. Pain brings life out in the worst of situations. This song is not to be confused with the Marvel related robot named Jocasta.
