View Guitar Chords for Monkey tree acoustic - chords ver. 1
This tab is from this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQNPryUIWXk). It's pretty simple, just how they play it acoustically with just guitar and vocals. You don't NEED to tune your guitar down because the entire thing is just chords, but tuning it down retains that heady low sound that drives the song. It doesn't sound as good with higher notes in the guitar. All chords are in reference to the neck, so the B is really an A but you'll just play a B shape in the full step down tuning.
