Written by: George Harrison
From: "All Things Must Pass" (1970)
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Open-E / Standard / Drop D
Here is my reading of this beautiful song for acoustic guitar. The main
guitar is probably in Open-E Tuning. But there are a lot of acoustics on
Harrison's studio recording and they may play different voicings with or
without capo. Playing alone, I like using the shapes and settings below.
Version 1: Open-E Tuning / Standard tuning, no capo
Version 2: drop-D, capo 2nd fret to match the tuning of the original
