Band: Creedence Clearwater Revival
Song: Fortunate Son
Tabbed by: Mablung
Tuning (D A D G) - 'Dropped D'
I've been playing this song live for 2 years now and just sat down to listen
to the recording. This is a slight correction on John Speas's
(kaspeas@worldnet.att.net) earlier tab. I can hear that the D note in the
chorus is actually an open D and not a 5th fret on the A-String. Give it a
listen and hear for yourself.
