Daughters Acoustic Live Tab

3,112 views, added to favorites 65 times

I made this tab in order to attempt to combine the rhythm and solo guitars from Daughters Live in LA so that the song can be played more completely by one person. I did this by changing the tuning to open D, and changing Mayer's chords in standard tuning to similar open D chords, incorporating the solo guitar when it is played. The tuning also allows players to strum a D while playing individual notes, giving a more complete sound.Was this info helpful?

Difficulty:	intermediate
Tuning:	D A D F# A D
Key:	D
Capo:	no capo
