Tuning:
my first contribution!) 3 guitars here, 2 acoustics doubling each other (denoted by gtr 1) + 1 clean electric (try single coil bridge position - gtr 2). The bass guitar part here is VERY important - it makes the song. I'm including the electric fills - + the vsn by Gary Chapman has a solo which looks slightly wrong.
