"In a tin cup"

REPEAT UNTIL FADE

* These 'D(A)' chords are best played like an 'appended' A chord.

For instance, first finger barring the B, G & D strings (2nd fret),

with second finger on B string (3rd fret), and 3rd finger on

D string (4th fret).

It's also worth noting with this song that there are a lot of

minor 7ths implied by the piano and guitars. (For instance,

D notes against E chords; G notes against A chords). This

is better 'felt' and improvised than written down.

See ya!
