Well, this is a first crack at making a tab, mostly cause I
couldn t find a tab that sounded like the song (well at least
when I was playing it).
Awesome song, but the guitar is very soft, so it s hard to pick
up the exact picking order. This isn t exactly how I like to play
it, but I think this is what the lovely Bic Runga does on
the recording.
Standard Tuning (EADGBe), Capo on the 5th.
Chords are as follows (relative to the capo)
CHORD:
SHAPE:
--------------------------------
e | 0 0 0 3 1
B | 1 0 1 0 1
G | 0 0 2 0 2
D | 2 2 2 0 3
A | 3 2 0 2 3
E | X 0 X 3 1
For the below I ve got the Acutal chord name,
followed by the open shape in brackets.
