		Typical Situation - Dave Matthews Band
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Album: Under the Table and Dreaming, Live at Red Rocks, Live at Luther College
 
Standard Tuning
 
Really nice song by Dave Matthews. I did it the way
he plays it on Live at Luther College. The song is
easy but it's hard to play and sing at the same time.
I'm not too sure about the chords but I think I got
the intro right. Any corrections would be helpful.
This song sounds good played solo on an acoustic
guitar but I wrote in bass notes to go along with
the chords anyway.
 
Special thanks to jakematthews; it's kind of based
on hisfile but a little different.
