Elton John - Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cow guitar tab

Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy by Elton John

Note: Pick out the opening melody, making the transition

from picked notes to chords as smooth as possible. I found it's smoother

to use a barre G for the first chord. Your middle finger should fret the

slide to the B note on the 4th fret G string, allowing you to grab the

barre G chord easily.
