William Fitzsimmons - I Had To Carry Her - табы

Title   : I Had To Carry Her (Virginia's Song)
Artist  : William Fitzsimmons
Album   : Pittsburgh
Tabber  : yylee85


I have tabbed an acoustic performance of this song which can be viewed via
this link: https://youtu.be/RB7AjJ8Iccs

In this performance, William Fitzsimmons sings the song in C# major using the
custom tuning outlined below with the Capo on the 2nd fret. To play the album 
version of this song (in C major) use the same custom tuning and simply place 
the Capo on the 1st fret.

I have tabbed the song in C# major based on the acoustic performance. If you 
want to obtain the chords for the song in C major then transpose the song chords
down one half-step (which is easily done on the ultimate-guitar website).


Capo 2
Custom Tuning
E-G#-C#-F#-B-D#

Alternatively you can use this tuning...
Capo 1
Custom Tuning
F-A-D-G-C-E



Chords and frets are relative to the capo
