California Part 2


TUNING: HALF STEP DOWN (D# G# C# F# A# D#) The previous tab here was close, though it assumed a D chord for part of the which isn't true. I've made the listed Intro/refrain what I assume he plays, and I've at the (*) what I think sounds better (it really just eliminates a weak sounding hammer on). stated above, the recording (and live shows), Mason Jennings tunes half a step down. you're just grooving, it's hardly necessary. Thanks to whomever posted the last tab, it a good starting point.
