  • Tuning: Open G5 (CGCGCG, low to high); it's easier on the strings if you tune to
    open F5 (Bb,F,Bb,F,Bb,F, low to high) and capo up to 2nd fret (adjust to suit
    vocal range).
  •  
    Notes:
    1. The intro and outro are in straight time, with the main themes and tunes
  • being in swing time (easier to play than to describe; listen to the record to
    get a better idea).
     
  • 2. The two straight time sections are, pretty much, in free time, but stick
    roughly to the tempo of the main tune.
     
  • 3. The verse section is roughly the same throughout; however, since Nick was a
    bit of an improviser, it's a case of "take this as a guideline".
     
  • 4. This particular transcription is taken from his original demo recording,
    rather than the final cut from "Five Leaves Left"; they're similar, but not
    identical. Personally, I prefer the solo acoustic version; I think the piano
  • makes it sound a bit too jolly and hearty, and the bass part (while being great)
    detracts from the descending bass on the acoustic. Anyway, you can make your
    own minds up.
