Chords

This song is in the key of C. To make it sound like the record, you need to tune to drop D, then tune everything down a full step. Please don't comment that my chord chart is completely wrong when you didn't read the above notice. It should look like this: E tuned to D B tuned to A G tuned to F D tuned to C A tuned to G E tuned to C Chords used:

That preacher was my jailer, now this bottle is my bail.

Outro: Vamp on D5 *Note* If you prefer, you can play the F/C in place of the Csus4 throughout the song. I think the open note sounds better, and is what is being played on the album. Try both and you'll agree it's very hard to tell. The F/C looks like this:
D-1
A-1
F-2
C-3
G-3
C-X
