After watching the DVD I noticed that CB playes this song in standard tuning with a capo
on the 2nd fret.  However, I cannot find my capo so here is the tuning that I picked it
out in (DADGBE).  This should be accurate since I watched him play it with thw capo and
the note are relative.

*all of these chords are fingerpicked and arpegiated, so if you know the song you should
be able to figure it out with the chords provided.

Thats pretty much all there is too it.  My band covers this song acoustic live to other
Blue October fans and have been told it sounds just like it.
