[End] Additional notes Original alternate tuning - Low E to D, B to A, E to D- so high D5 is always droning (ish) Just Bm7 for start, G (can add 9 - keeping those 2 high strings droning - which is A and D creates more interesting chords), can play Asus4 instead of A as well to keep that drone Cheeky Em (poss 7th) passing during verse
