Palmyra by Houndmouth Watched some live videos to learn this. Simple song, but can add complexity with hammering on/off through out the song. The guitarist for the band keeps his guitar 1/2 step down. SO to play with the record you'd have to drop your tuning. I typically play standard tuning though. The guitarist plays many different riffs in and out of the chord changes. One progression I play is: C/G F* C/G E|-3-----------------x-----------3-----| A|-3-----------------3--3--3--3--3-----| D|-2---------0h2p0---3--0--0--3--2-----| G|-0--0h2-0----------2--2--2--2--0-----| B|-1-----------------1--3--1--1--1-----| e|-0-----------------0--0--0--0--0-----| Intro: C/G F* verse 1: C/G Oh My Palmyra F* Sweeter then sugar Cane C/G She took a Kentucky Shower F* In the Pouring Tennessee rain G* Long Live her Cherokee blood line F* Keeps her skin olive and tan Chorus:
