I got close last time, but I think this is closer. Earlier I felt the song
was played in an altered tuning because some of the chord progressions
sounded more open in the recording. Whatta you think?
Also, "You Move Me", by Susan ashton is in this same tuning (CAPO 3).
Tuning: Double Dropped D --> DADGBD
CAPO 3
