The other versions on here are alright (especially Sherkon's, whose template
I used, and a portion of whose tab I reused here).
But, The Civil Wars play this song in DADGAD, which gives it a very
different flavor from standard or drop tuning. It has a lot of cool chords,
and it's generally just a nice tuning to play around with. The chords are
simpler, and slightly different from standard tuning.
This song is awesome.
Questions? Just PM me on UG, or leave a comment.
