The Ledge - Fleetwood Mac
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
Fleetwood Mac
The Ledge (1979)
(Lindsey Buckingham)
From: "Tusk"
The song is in B. I tabbed out two versions here.
1. Original version from the album :
Buckingham tuned down his guitar 5 half steps
from e-B-G-D-A-e
to B-F#-D-A-e-B
2. If you don't want to do that: regular tuning but original key
But that's not the real thing ... and only half the fun!
For both versions: only the lower three strings of every chord are played
(root, fifth and octave).
