This tab is based on the live version of "Motion Sickness" that Phoebe Bridgers
played during her Tiny Desk Concert at NPR. You can watch the performance at the
link below, it's the second song she plays during the set and begins 4 minutes
into the video:
In the clip, Phoebe is playing a baritone guitar tuned to AEAC#EA (open A major)
with a capo on the 4th fret. This is equivalent to playing a regular guitar tuned
to C#G#C#FG#C# with no capo.
