------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Murder in the city - The Avett Brothers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Zayfra E-mail: zayfra@yahoo.ca Tuning: Standard - Capo on THIRD fret, all chords relative to capo Since there are two guitars playing there are lots of sounds that cannot be reproduced by one guitar; yet I wanted something that sounded right and not simplified. Enjoy! Intro: **Hint: This picking pattern can be played easily by holding a C chord shape and slightly changing finger positions as necessary.
