Tuning: E A D G B E
Just Dropped In by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition Notes: the guitars are so distorted it's hard to tell, but the chord notated as Am7 might actually be A7#9 [54555x] - try both and see which you think sounds more like the record. The bass is definitely tuned below concert pitch [see the second break], and I suspect that the distorted rhythm guitar is as well - try tuning to DGCFAD and playing in Em/Fm/F#m. -- AWR [Intro] [Backwards guitar over B minor pentatonic scale; end on D note] [Chorus]
