Sigh No More
Mumford And Sons
Text File
So after picking around in a tuning for another Mumford and Sons song, Little Lion
Man, I realized that this song was also in that tuning. So I figured it out. Its
really easy and the tuning is gorgeous, IMO.
It's EACGCE (reading left to right thats Low E to High E)
Tune the B up a half step to C and the D down a full step to C.

Alternate between the low note hit on the A and going down
from the 4th fret to the 2nd fret on the 2nd string (the B tuned to
a C. Then when the second part of the verse starts it goes
to the Am and hit the A string open and the 2nd string on the
2nd fret. And then go to the C and just hit the A on the 3rd fret
and hit the 2nd string and the 3rd string open, at the same time.
