 Artist: Bert Jansch 
 Track title: Down River 
 Album: Thirteen Down (Bert Jansch Conundrum) 
 Tuning: EADGBE 
 Capo: 3rd fret 
  
 Another one of Berts easier tunes, and this one is very nice; recorded as  
 "The Bert Jansch Conundrum" in 1979. The track features accordian and violin 
 but works very well with just guitar and vocals. Here I've tabbed the intro  
 and first verse but you may well find slight variations between verses. It's  
 in 4/4 but there is a bar of 2/4 and 6/4. The asterisks are a guide :o)
