Dan Fogelberg - Longer guitar tab

This should get you started...this version uses "double dropped D tuning",

which just means you tune the top and bottom strings (E's) down to D.

Fogelberg uses an open G tuning , which is almost the same (you just also tune

the A down to G....sorry if you know all this already). I had already figured

out this version before I realized he used open G, but it's close enough

that I never bothered relearning it.

Enjoy,

LONGER -- Dan Fogelberg

Here's the bridge...don't forget E strings are dropped to D

(although you don't really use them in this part..you could

play this in standard tuning)

Repeat this part 3 times:

I'll bring fire in the winter (1)

You'll send showers in the spring (2)

We'll fly thru the falls & summers (3)
