Notes:
The fret positions are in relation to the position of the capo.
The tones in the bits of tab are those that result after
applying the capo to the 1st fret.
Jonatha says the tuning for this one should be EbBbEbFBbEb
which has a pattern of x75255. I started on D and put the
capo on 1st fret to reduce tension on strings 5 and 4. Also,
I found that by tuning the second string down to a whole tone
above the third string, I could get one of the tones in the
piano version of the song. You will hear it if you listen
to the recording while you learn to play it.
I also took a small liberty with the execution of the last
chord.
