Hi :) This is my first tab but I'm pretty confident it is right.Great band and a
brilliant song!!! I've figured it out from live performances and from the bands
performance of
The Lakes of Pontchartrain which they have said are very similar. It is in open D tuning
(D,A,D,F#,A,D). I'm not sure of the chord names but I'll try my best.
There is a capo on the 4th fret.
