There is definitely two guitars going or maybe a guitar and a mandolin but I’m gonna write this just using one guitar.  It’s not that hard to tab for both but you can figure this out easy by just learning on one guitar or following this tab.  Was the band listening to “Here Comes the Sun”  when writing this because the hook is similar.  But if your gonna use a band for inspiration, then look up to THE BEATLES!

***CAPO at 3rd Fret
12 String will probably sound much better!
