As close as I could get to Lenker's Tiny Desk performance (https://youtu.be/D0E5vMkDfOI?t=427). Basically a tabbed version of izzmace's chords filling in the rest of the plucking patterns. First fret capo, 3/4 time.Was this info helpful?
Difficulty: intermediate
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 1st fret

We have an official Lorraine tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
I recommend using index, middle, and ring to cover the top three strings (G-B-e)
and just the thumb for the bottom three (E-A-D). Personal preference.
 
(Most) chords:
C:  x35x53 or x32010
C7: x35353
F:  10321x (use thumb for E string or barre chord it)
G:  310003
Am: x02210
Dm: xx0231

When I saw the first time the thunder came crashing
