Cedar Tree Indigo Girls
CEDAR TREE (Amy Ray)
--------------------
I'm not going to try to type out the whole song, because the songbook
doesn't have it exactly right, and I can't quite figure it out. If you
really want to learn the whole song, though, the book is probably your
best bet. (It also has the tab for the solo, which I'm not going to type.)
The part I've typed here is just the intro, although the verses follow a
similar pattern. Note that the tuning is open G (DGDGBD).
The fast part with the Irish feel to it is just D and C, with little bits
of G in between. All the chords in that part are full barres. (D=777777,
C=555555, and G=000000.) Right after that, one of the guitars plays "Ode to
Joy" softly; you can figure out the melody to that in about two seconds.
