SONG  | The Owl

OPEN D MajorD TUNING:
6:D 5:A 4:D 3:F# 2:A 1:D


There's a lot of guitar layers and improvisation on the original recording; this is a fairly simplified
version that gets across the main patterns and chords. Just mess about with hammer-ons, pull-offs and
fingerpicking to get the vibe of the song.
