That'll Be the Day Linda Ronstadt
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.]
[Bolly's version also includes tbis easy and cool riff:]
