This Old House - Matt Epp

Matt Epp's official website is at http://www.mattepp.com/.  You can hear
this song on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUKc8xfJZnw with a
live version where you can see his playing at 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9-yOlpX-O8 (the live version is slightly
different than the CD recording).

Matt keeps his pinky on the 3rd fret of the high-e string (G) throughout the
song for all chords.  The C G and Am7 chords are still normal with the 
pinky-G, but the F becomes Fadd9.  You can play it without the pinky-G and 
it still sounds good, but it's also cool the way he plays it.

Standard time.
