                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Having finally worked out how to play "Treetop Flyer" in DADGAD, I realized that by avoiding the 3rd string (G-string), I could easily play "4-20."  I play a 12-string and also wanted to play "Suite Judy Blue Eyes" in the same set without retuning.  BTW, on the Steve Stills album "Just Roll Tape," which was supposedly an impromptu opportunity for Stills to have some studio time left over from a Judy Collins session, you can hear him retune to the EEEEBE in real time - I think it sounds pretty cool.  Anyway, I'm working on using the DADDAD tunings available here (and on the Net) to perform the song with DADGAD.  Again, the reason being that I really like "Treetop Flyer" and the only way I could get the sound I liked was with DADGAD.<br><br>As an aside it's perhaps worthwhile mentioning that the fingering pattern on the 1st and 2nd strings in "4-20" is essentially identical to the pattern used at the beginning of "Suite Judy Blue Eyes."  Stills managed to get a least two songs out of the same pattern - anyone know of anymore to add to this?<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Doktat]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I may be mistaken about it, but I think the tuning in the original recording (what was on the released album) had all four of the low strings tuned to E, making it EEEEBE. The fifth string was tuned down to the same E as the sixth string while the D string was tuned up a step and the G string down a step-and-a-half. Again, I may be mistaken but "Carry On" was also tuned this way execpt each string was lowered an additional half step, making it EbEbEbEbBbEb.<br><br>EBEEBE or DADDAD would certainly work, though. <br><br>Peace]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[If you're cool with DADGAD, you might want to go one small step and try open D (DADF#AD). It's very easy to play Suite; Judy Blue Eyes in this tuning as you'll have most of the original tabs to work on (just like in DADGAD) but you'll also get some very cool sounding embellishments by hanging on to that F# from the D chord. <br><br>Just a thought. And as Roy points out, you can certainly play this in standard as well. <br><br>Peace]]></content:encoded>

written by Stephen Stills

It's getting to the point where I'm no fun any more. I am sorry.     
Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud, I am lonely.    
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard. 

Remember what we've said, and done, and felt about each other, oh babe, have mercy              
Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now, I am not dreaming               
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard 

Tearing yourself away from me now, your are free, I am crying      
This does not mean I don't love you, I do, that's forever, yes and for always.             
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard. 

Something inside is teling me that I've got your secret, are you still listening?              
Fear is the lock, and laughter the key to your heart, and I love you.               
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are  
You make it hard, and you make it hard

Friday evening, Sunday in the afternoon, what have you got to lose?
Tuesday mornin', please be gone I'm tired of you, what have you got to lose?
Can I tell it like it is? Listen to me baby, 
It's my heart that's a suffering, it's dyin', and that's what I have to lose.

I've got an answer, I'm going to fly away, what have you got to lose?
Will you come to see me Thursdays and Saturdays? What have you got to lose?

Chestnut brown canary, ruby throated sparrow,
Sing a song, don't be long, thrill me to the marrow
Voices of the angels, ring around the moonlight
Asking me, said she so free, how can you catch the sparrow?

Lacy lilting lyrics losing love lamenting
Change my life, make it right, be my lady

{c:Repeat 8 times}
Do do do do do, do <i>do do do o do do do do do</CODE>]]></content:encoded>

(Plus I still lose my nerve every time I go to retune.) However, I wondered whether it's playable in DADGAD tuning. <br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Shady]]></content:encoded>
