Tuning : EGDGBD, capo on 4th fret
i.E. capo'D notes are G# B F# B D# F#
 
Kloot afficionados will recognise this as one of the band's best loved tunes.
 
They've recorded it twice - on 'I Am Kloot' (2003) and 'Sky At Night' (2010).
 
Unusually for IAK it uses a different tuning capo'd at fret 4,
effectively A Badd9.
 
I've seen this tabbed several times with standard tuning,
but with respect to those efforts they do not reflect how
the band / John Bramwell play it.
 
It took several attempts for me to crack it,
but I'm very confident this is a faithful representation of how
the band play it.

This is Open G tuning. The low E string isn't played anyway so it doesn't really matter
