xFORTUNATE SON - Creedence Clearwater Revival
Tabbed by: Jakollee
Email: [email protected]
Tuning: D (D-G-C-F-A-D) (like standard, but a whole-step down)
To play this song, John Fogerty tunes his guitar down a whole step (in standard tuning)
so he can play as if it's in the key of A, but sing it in the key of G.
