Artist: Bert Jansch
Track title: Blackwaterside
Album: Jack Orion
Tuning: DADGBE (dropped D)
Capo: 5th Fret

Amazing tune but a real pain to transcribe! There are bars of 2,3,4,5 and
6; the asterisks let you know how many beats. You will have to work
closely with the record to capture the fine nuances of the rhythm and
structure. There are also slight variations from verse to verse. Some of
the fingering can be changed to suit you; most of them I arrived at for
reasons of tone. I think mine is a little different to the Stefan
Grossman transcription, though I stick by it - it sounds really authentic
especially when you sing along. Good luck and have fun!
