Chords

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The song is basically just a finger-picking/bottleneck exercise over a sustained chord to hit then) Open E tuning (E-B-e-g#-b-e')/capo 2nd fret. Below is the intro and the first verse tabbed the way it is played. All the slide are played with the bottleneck, but if you haven't emptied your bottle yet, the fingers will to do. The lick that is played here and there in the intro and between lines eventually settles a more fixed form:
