You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research. # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------## From: [email protected] (Adam Schneider) Subject: CRD: "That'll Be the Day" (Linda Ronstadt/Buddy Holly) THAT'LL BE THE DAY (Buddy Holly, Norman Petty, Jerry Alison) ------------------------------------------------------------ [Unfortunately, I only have a recording of the Linda Ronstadt version of this song. But from a book in the library, I learned that Holly's original version used these chords with a capo on the fifth fret, so it was actually in A. Ronstadt's is in F, so use a capo on the first fret.]
[Holly's version also includes this easy and cool riff:]
