xTragically Hip - Country Day from We ARe All The Same (2009)
Standard tuning, capo on 2nd fret. All chords relative to capo position.
Listen to how they play the song for the walking bass parts and the melody line
on the (e) string (D, Dsus, open etc ala Magic Power - Triumph). It is a very
cool song, pretty simple but fun to play!
