  • Actually capoed up to A, as I hear it.

  • @H9MD43 Yes, you're right. I play it in Open G (DGDGBD) tuning with the capo on the 2nd fret, which puts it in the key of A. The original is in the key of G however. I don't actually play it as per the original. I've mixed the 2 guitar parts, for fun, playing the melody on the first 2 lines "The hands on the clock keep turning round/ They point to the time of the day". For the last 2 lines, I go down rather than up following the harmony part which is sung and, I assume, played by Dave Cousins.

  • Well done, very nice man.

    What's the tunning?

  • @zepelindeplomo Cheers, it's in Open G (DGDGBD bass to top) 

  • Wow! You have done a lot of justice in covering this song. Really good work!

    Nice vocals!!

  • @folkmusicgirl Thanks very much :o)

  • Fabulous fluid fret work fellows!

  • Sorry man, how old are you.

    I´m trying to play this song, but it's difficult and i think you're great. Can you play "how everyone but Sam was a hypocrite" please?
