To learn Robin Trower - (1977-1983, 2012 Remaster) Once The Bird Has Flown chords, focus on the sequence of these chords: E, C#, F#, C#m, C#, F#, C#m and F#. A strategic approach would be to train at 54 BPM initially, and then accelerate to the song's tempo of 110. With C# Minor as the song's key, tweak the capo to cater to your vocal pitch and chord likes.
