CUYAHOGA (Version 1)
There are two ways to play the intro riff. The more accurate way is to tune
your low E string down to D. If you want to be able to play normal chord
shapes, though, this way is better:
G(3) --2------2----|
D(4) 0-----0-----0-|
A(5) |--5-----5-5-----|--2-------2-----|--5-5---5-5-----|
E(6) |3-----3-----3---|0-----0-------0-|3-----3-----3---|
