xTonic - Soldiers Daughter
From "Lemon Parade" Album
tuning: Acoustics/Electric Guitar in DADF#AE but capo 4th fret
tabbed by jjhand
This is the way that Emerson and Jeff play it in Tonic. Tune down 2nd and 6th strings
a full step and the 3rd string a half step to get open Dadd9 tuning.
This was as close as I could get, so have fun and rate or comment please.
Intro - Two Acoustics
play 2x
