Charted by Dexex [Chords]
Em7   = 022033
G2    = 320033 ("G2" is actually an alternative voicing of the G chord)
Cadd9 = x32033 [Notes] Isbell uses pull-offs and hammer-ons throughout the song to embellish the basic chords. For this chart I've used alternative chord voicings to embellish the song for solo performance. If you prefer, you can play the basic G, C and Em chords. Intro tabbed by (gbrownstrat)
