  • 4/4 time standard tuning (EADGBe) low to high
     
    The song on the CD is played with at least two guitars (one acoustic
  • and one electric) this transcription is arranged for the acoustic.
     
    *****Picking:
  • Dave Gavurin uses slighly different picking patterns throughout
    the song, I've chosen the following one, it seems to work nicely.
    (shown for the B and G chords)
  •  
    B G(add C)
    ----------------------------------------------------------
  • -------4-----4--------------------------------------------
    -----4---4-----4--------------5-----5---------------------
    ---4-------4----------------5---5-----5-------------------
  • -2------------------------5-------5-----------------------
    ------------------------3---------------------------------
    fingers: T 1 2 3 2 1 3 2
  •  
    T = Thumb (bass note of the chord)
    1 = first finger
  • 2 = second finger
    3 = third finger
    (of course, you can use a flatpick if you like)
  •  
    *****Chords:
    along with some chords i suggest some alternates to maximize the
  • use of open strings (and reduce hand fatigue)
     
    B C C Bb G(add C) G(add C) F
  • alt. alt.
    ----------------------------------------------1------------------
    --4-----5---1-----3-----------------1---------1------------------
  • --4-----5---------3--------5------------------2------------------
    --4-----5---2-----3--------5------------------3------------------
    --2-----3---3-----1--------5------------------3------------------
  • ---------------------------3--------3---------1------------------
     
    Note: use of alternate chords changes the picking slightly.
