Tuning: E A D G B E

Song: Gift of a brand new day Artist: Harvey Andrews Composer: Harvey Andrews Albums: Writer of songs / 25 years on the road Tabbed by DJ ('DiddyD' on ultimateGuitar.com) 13th Mar 2017 Here's a link to a clip of Harvey playing this song that I videoed at a gig that I promoted and did the stage mixing and lighting for him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8gqiZcd8jw The original album version has more of an alternating bass note feel, as shown in the intro, which could be applied throughout the song. In later perfomances, as in the video clip mentioned above, Harvey simplifies the picking, and also uses the passing chord of G/F#. He also updates the song with a different 3rd verse *, I've included both, so you have the choice of either, or even both, verses. D = xx0232 A = x02220 A4 = x02230 D/A = x00232 A7 = x02223 or x02020 F#7 = x44320 G = 320003 D4 = xx0233 Dsus2 = xx0230 G/D = xx0003 G/F# = 2x0002 ****************************************************************** [Intro]
