Update 2021-07-22: After several listens, I am sure there is a lower note after all. It is an Open C on 6.
So, no this cannot be played perfectly in Eb as I have tabbed it. Sorry...
Update 2021-07-29: I have indicated where the Drop C, Open C on 6 is... It's just a few note strokes.
The rest of the tab I think is playable. Denoted this error with ###
Update 2021-08-07: Been distracted with O'Brother tabbing :). Corrected some editing.
Also noticed I am missing either slides or hammer ons and pull offs.. will update
in near future.
My contribution here is definitely not 100% accurate, It should provide a good skeleton for the song though.
So please tell me your thoughts, and how to correct.
I welcome your criticisms, and being told I am tone deaf. Just help me correct it if you can.
From what I can tell most of the notes/chords are following Dustin's voice. So I will specify the chords,
and what position. then follow the strum where possible.
Key: F#m (as Eb)
Strumming: Not sure about this...
Intro and Verses: when playing F# DD DD DUDUD DD (repeat),
when playing the Eb: first one is same as F#, next one: is Eb, but last 6 strums on 5
Strum: DDDD DDD
