This lacks the droning open string sound of the original. One solution is to tune the 2nd and 3rd string up one fret.

The repeated note on string 5 fret 14 is moved to string 3 fret 1. This also makes the switch from the 3rd to the 4th chord easier. Unfortunately this means chord shapes are no longer isomorphic. Another solution is a partial capo on fret 1 on strings 2 and 3, and perhaps 4 as well. This too avoids the 14th fret note. <b>Bolded</b> notes are capo'ed open strings:

Line 1,730: Line 1,733:


The last chord of the 3rd quarter of the song is the most "away" chord, so it seemed natural to put a subharmonic chord there. The extra dissonance gives the song a little boost. Since I didn't want the tonic to shift, the only other alternatives were ^IIv7 and IIv,7. The only tricky part was how to tune the chord's 6th. Ideally it would be a M7 to match the chord's 3rd, but for playability and to avoid a pitch shift I used a vM7. It makes a wolf 11th with the bass note (21/8 vs. 8/3) and even worse a wolf 6th with the root (27/16 vs 12/7). So perhaps bend it up a bit?
