Yvette in English
by
Joni Mitchell and David Crosby,
from her album, Turbulent Indigo


First time posting, please forgive any inaccuracies.
Having forgotten what little music theory I ever knew,
I have no idea what the chords are really called, but here
are their shapes, and the tuning, as I hear it. This is the
barest skeleton of what joni plays, but by using this tuning, the
shapes and by listening to the album, you can get pretty close.

Tuning
(tune each string down,
to the nearest correct note)

E=C
A=G
D=D
G=E
B=g
e=c

(same tuning for 'God must be a boogie man',
also by joni, album=mingus)
