on Zuma (1975)
Uploaded by Keith Poulin
Tempo: 57 (bpm)
Note: Double Drop D tuning (D-A-D-G-B-D). You will need to make a minor adjustment to the standard Em chord shape (i.e. fret 2 low D string), which will really result in an Em7 due to the high D string. The standard D chord shape is really a Dsus2 in this tuning, and all strings can and should be used. The standard Am chord shape still works, but is really an Am11
