When all the crap that passes as musical art these days starts to get tiring, it's comforting to know there are still real artists like Bruce Cockburn around making beautiful, timeless music.

Awesome! I've finally figured out how to play this song thanks to this.

For anyone interested:

Tuning is EADF#BE and the chords are something like this:

2x0000

022200

044200

544000

And he just does different combinations of that with little variations.

@MrTruthPilgrim AHAH! I got it

2x0000

022222

picking is on A 2-4 on G 0-2

064500

042300

@villastrangiato That's because, as I've learned over my 30 years of following Bruce, he doesn't just focus on just the good, or just on the bad, or on any one aspect of life; he tells the whole story; good, bad, ugly, and beautiful and does it with a command of the English language I can only aspire to attain... Words are his art, and music is his palette.
