Eluveitie - A Rose for Epona
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: EADGBE
Capo @ 2nd fret
NOTE: That's what I came up with since I first listened to the song two days ago.
It's a simple solution, I know, and it's not 100% accurate but should give
you a good start. Personally I prefer blocking off both E strings. Also I
like picking the first verse instead of strumming the chords.
Anyway, the hard part is singing it :p
F': Use this F instead of barre chord (which I use on the chorus parts only)
