Mar 21, 2012 - some blues teacher told me this was not open D. does seem tuned about a whole step lower than standard E though.

Mar 28, 2012 - This is in a whole step down so its "D G C F A d" i am trying to learn this song right now..

Mar 28, 2012 - It is in standard tuning, but a whole step down. The song is in D and the chords(shapes) are E, A and B7. He doesn't do anything fancy at all with his left hand it's all in the picking.

Typicus Says:

Mar 29, 2012 - Uh. D?

LouisGanja Says:

May 5, 2012 - does anyone know if this recording is on lp? searched high and low but the closest I found was one of "all night long" which was preformed just before this song. so there is hope...

May 8, 2012 - No, this song is in standard tuning (although the guitar might be slightly downtuned, not sure)

May 15, 2012 - WoW. Speechless!!

lordofthemoodring Says:

May 15, 2012 - its just tuned down a whole step. other than that its normal tuning. so slide up into an E7 (like a D7 but up two frets, then to a B chord, get that pinky workin, then the A chord and on the high E string get that pinky workin again, and then E and B7, thats the skeleton of it.
