Standard Tuning

I worked long and hard and I found out the real chords for this song. Just a little second finger picking and you should have it.

G|-0--0--0--3--2--2--2--2--7--5--0--0--|
D|-2--2--2--2--3--3--3--3--5--3--0--0--|
A|-3--3--3--3--------------7--5--X--X--|
E|-------------------------------3--3--|

The last chords are like this:

The Very Old Man

Tabbed by Merrye Curry
comments corrections and suggestions to merrye@earthling.net

This time, I fixed up a few things making it a bit easier to play.
Keep in mind that this is the pattern of the first verse only. The
other two verses are very similar but the rhythm is
somewhat adlibbed. The chord structures are the same.
