Come Down In Time - Taupin/John
I heard this song performed by Al Kooper's band in the late 70's.
I picked up the chords from listening it on the radio. I may not be
the actual chords, but represent an amazing simulation!
The fret and root string are in parenthesis after the chord itself, to
give you an idea of how I play it.
