------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Dave Email: [email protected] This is the first online tab I've seen to a great Social D song that is has been featured live on their most recent tour. You can check out the song online on lots of different websites. Great SxDx song! Tuning: EADGBE (CAPO ON 1st Fret) They usually tune down a 1/2 step and capo the 2nd Either works. Most of their stuff uses a Capo and instead of tuning up, I think he gets the volute on the early 70's Les Pauls by using the Capo. Just a thought. I'll add the solo later. This should get you pretty close. frets numbered relative to CAPO
