Can anyone provide accurate, real tab? Even though I'm only an 'ear' musician, I can almost always figure out what the Byrds are basically doing. Not with this one, however.

Yes, yes, I get the capo on 2nd fret; the drop-D tuning; F#m to C#m chords... it still just doesn't sound right when I'm playing it.

What I'm looking for is the actual rhythm chord positions McGuinn is playing, or whatever other helpful suggestion anyone may have. I've used Joe Deloro's tutorial, but unfortunately, it's too brief and incomplete. Also, while his sound sample is dead on, the tab just doesn't seem right.

Any help is most appreciated.

Try contacting Roger McGuinn directly. I understand he hangs out on the web quite a lot.

Roger and I do correspond, but I really don't want to bug him for detailed tab. And that's what I'm looking for here.
