Band: Lifehouse
Song: May


I figured out 2 ways to play this song.

1. Capo on 4th fret (It's the best Version)
2. Standard Tuning


Please rate it.

1) Capo 4th fret:

e------>G#
B------>D#
G------>B
D------>F#

2) Standart Tuning ("Emergency Version")

You can use this Version if you don't have a capo, but to play it like it is
you have to play the Version above.
