This song is played in dropped-D tuning, with a capo at the first fret. A 302 in the tab is really a 1 because the capo is holding down all strings at the first fret. All other numbers are the actual numbers fretted. Intro: I9ll call this rythym figure 1. It9s played throughout the song with slight variations and ad libs. Just listen to the record. The chord forms are the ones you would use for , and in standard tuning, first position. The numbers just look strange cuz of the capo--well, you know what I mean...
