-Ben Harper-Burn One Down-
-Standard Tuning-
Ben Harper plays this song one step down: (d,F,A,C,G,D)
but it works perfectly with the usual tuning except
it's a bit harder to sing...
When playing the bass line (E,A,D) you should let ring the other
chords. You can also work the song without the bass notes at first
just to get the rythm. And don't forget to sing along !
