Tabbed by: Daniel Brent (dbs_17@hotmail.com)
This tab is of a live promo performance he gave of this song for the 700
Club. It's extremely similar to the album version except he left out the
intro and outro. For this rendition, his acoustic was tuned down a half
step (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) but to play along with the cd, you must tune down
a full step (D-G-C-F-A-D).
For simplicity, all chords and tabulation will be shown as if in standard
tuning.
Tuning: D-G-C-F-A-d (down full step)
