May You Never - Slow - Pt 1 Intro & Chorus

As requested once or twice.

The tuning is Dropped D (DADGBE). You can't really see it, but the capo is on the 2nd fret.

Sorry the sound quality is so poor. It was ok until I put it into windows movie maker!!

Great vids - in the older version Martyn is capoing higher up. (3 fret??)There is a wonderfull vid from 78 or something here on Utube. I do believe he is using the lowered D-string more often than you suggest. Thanks for posting I love it.

You may be right. I just got as close as I could from listening to the record and watching his classic '73 OGWT performance. The thing about JM is that he constantly changed the way he performed songs and even the key he sang them in so there's always likely to be differences.

Many thanks for your comment.
