Jesse
Written by Janis Ian
Arranged by Joan Baez
Tablature by Nathan Sitkoff (sitkoff@cs.umass.edu)

No capo; standard tuning

Anybody who knows what key/mode this is please drop me a line. It
looks a bit like C, but feels more like Dm.

I think that this is pretty close to what JB is doing. I definitely
fudged a bit during the verse; there's some kind of hammer-on during
the E chord which I can't figure out. As always, comments are
welcome, and if anybody out there can do better please post it.

Note: During the intro, finger the Dm "as usual" with the index,
middle and ring fingers of your left hand. During the verse, use your
index, middle and PINKY so you can use your ring finger to fret the C
in Dm/C. This makes progressing from Dm to Dm/C to G7 easy.
