tuning : dbgdad

here’s a rough sketch of the * correct * chords for one of my favorite songs that everyone else
tried to tab out and miserably screwed up . to give you all a hint of how i got these chords
and the tuning , i went to archive . org and found a live elliott smith bootleg featuring
a solo arrangement of roman candle . got the tuning by listening to him tune the guitar on
clementine or something .

anyway , to make this sound good , make sure to travis pick throughout this entire song
( it’s a workout! ) . it’s definitely not easy to play but i’m pretty confident that this time
around the chords are 100% accurate .
