to the ftp archives?
Here's the rendition of the song as played on the ACL show last year, and it
follows Shawn's guitar style very closely. Luckily, I taped it and
the camera man was nice enough to focus on her left hand for much of
the set. Please excuse my chord names, as I have little knowledge of
musical theory or chord nomenclature.
