I figured it out one day while playing with the G major and C major scales at the first to 3rd fret- I think that Garcia loves to play most of his song introductions on those scales around that area of the neck - enjoy ! THE WHEEL GRATFEUL DEAD E--------------------------------- B------------------------------- G------------------------------- D-----------0-------2-------0-- A--------------2-------------- E-----3--3--------------3---- the best way to play this is just to use a regualr G chord -and mess around like playing Pink Floyds "Wish You Were Here" till you get the melody correct. you also can substituite the open D string for D on the 5th string at the 5th fret, and try using the G as an open string.... enjoy ! Any feedback would be appriciated . jason
