Cadillac Sky - Tired Old Phrases
from Letters in the Deep (2010)
I first figured this one out without a capo, but it is easier to play with capo. When David Mayfield
plays this he uses capo 4 (or even 5 sometimes higher) using C chords (C, G, F, Am7). You can hit the
transpose button down to -4 for those chords. When Ross Holmes strums it he uses capo 2 (D A G Bm7,
tranpose -2) And Matt Menefee picks out with no capo though I can't tell if with these chords or
with a guitar tuned down a whole step.
Other than a couple of Emaj7 embellishments in verses 3 & 4 the chords are the same for
the verses and instrumentals.
E xx2100
Emaj7 xx2130
B7 xx1202
A xx2220
C#m7 xx6454 or xx2104
Picking: something like strings 4 2 3 2 1 2 3 2 (or 4 3 4 2 1 2 3 2
or 4 3 2 3 1 3 2 3 ?)

Hopefully someone who knows something about bluegrass can verify this or get the picking
more exact.
