Longer tab by Dan Fogelberg

Guitar Tab

This should get you started...this version uses "double dropped D tuning",
which just means you tune the top and bottom strings (E's) down to D.
Fogelberg uses an open G tuning , which is almost the same (you just also tune
the A down to G....sorry if you know all this already). I had already figured
out this version before I realized he used open G, but it's close enough
that I never bothered relearning it.

Enjoy,

    LONGER -- Dan Fogelberg

    Here's the bridge...don't forget E strings are dropped to D
       (although you don't really use them in this part..you could
        play this in standard tuning)

    Repeat this part 3 times:

       I'll    ..(1)
       You'll  ..(2)
       We'll   ..(3)
