You can also play it without capo if you dont have one handy.

I wouldn't know how the song goes (don't really care that much either), but diatonically thinking G-C-D-E seems stupid. Thinking it like that the E would obviously be Em because the minor third of Em is g, and if it were Emaj it would be a G#.
It doesn't really sound all that odd though (the accidental that is), and well like said I really don't know is the song made like that, but that's a thing I really didn't expect to see in a hiphop song. "simple" music is usually diatonic because that's the only thing that sounds good and ..."simple" to most.

the song doesn't sound conventional. i'm at work so i can't listen to the song to find out but yeah logically it would be an Em. not sure if outkast has much background in music theory though.

You're totally right. I was just fucking around on my guitar and didnt have a capo handy, while reading this thread. I noticed it sounded pretty good as G-C-D-E, so I figured I would post it incase anyone wanted to play it without one. I've since played it at a friends house and people were impressed, though of course none of them were guitar players, so I was able to kinda sneak one past them. Basically, as long as you are playing to a crowd with little knowledge of guitar, you can pass off pretty much anything that sounds remotely close. _________________ We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.

(force beat from not sustaining chord) ie bounce hand some ..
G move to C/D(open B) with little e with C on 3rd fret, go to D tehn little e back to 3rd fret with D, then E . E to me seems dark for such pop maybe a E/G as in open E with 3rd fret of big e. maybe i need to read my chord chart next time in the bathroom for the names of hybrid chords
