Tuning: E A D G B E
I noted a distinct lack of recent Punch Brothers lead sheets on here, so here's an attempt at "It's All Part of the Plan". It's a pretty straightforward progression that gets taken in a couple of different keys. The tune is in five, but the strumming is pretty straightforward. The hardest part is phrasing the vocals, as there are some six bar phrases to watch out for. Also, the C#11 noted in Verse 1 contributes some of the dissonance that the mandolin adds to the chords the banjo are playing. It could be fun to experiment with that elsewhere in the song, if that's what you're into, but the chords noted here should get you through the recording without any trouble. [Verse 1]
