Notes- Capo on 2nd. All chords and tabs relative to the capo. Meaning, I am
pretending that the capo is the top of the guitar. I recommend finger picking.
Use your thumb for the E, A, and D strings and your index, middle, and ring
finger for the G, B, and e strings. The picking pattern is a variation of the
Travis Pick. Feel free to e-mail me any questions (huw_la@yahoo.com).
