Back Home in Indiana - C6 tab

John Steele · From: Renfrew, Ontario, Canada

Following some discussion in Bar Chatter about John Hughey's nice version of "Indiana", I thought i'd post this. It would
be presumptuous for me to say this is exactly the way Mr. Hughey plays it, but it is an interpretation of the way he plays the head. Any comments/suggestions welcome.
First string is D. Pretty standard changes, 3 picks.

Note: 


If you haven't got the 3rd string 1/2 raise, you can play the


C chord in the 12th bar here:


  C7


3--7---


4--7---


5------


6--7(6-


7------


8------


The * notes near the end are like grace notes.

John, this is very good. Thanks for taking the time to share your work with us. And thanks to Mr. Hughey too for playing such a significant part in the success and advancement of the PSG.

Drew Howard · From: 48854

John,

Thanks for the tune, and all the other ones
you've taken the time to tab out. II've been saving them for a rainy day. I don't have a guitar with a C neck currently, but I'm getting itchy to play C6 again.

cheers,
Drew

JERRY THURMOND · From: sullivan mo u.s.a.

Thanks John, Iam always glad to get anything on C6th. Jerry

John Steele · From: Renfrew, Ontario, Canada

Don, Drew, Jerry, thanks for reading.
I'd be interested in knowing your opinion as to how close it is, or if you have changes you think you'd make.
Drew, my Michigan buddy, No C6th? *sigh*
I am lighting a candle, and placing it in the window for you.

Nice work John I think its very close to the JH version.

Bosse Engzell · From: ï¿½ppelbo, SWEDEN

It is a nice work on this tune. But I am old and use G on top, explain the different with a D on top. And cane you do that in Swedesh I be glad. I play this on E9th i F. But on C6 is not the same. A big THANK YOU.

John Steele · From: Renfrew, Ontario, Canada

Hi Bosse,
I've never used a G on top of C6, but I know lots of great players that do.
For this tab, you can use your 7th pedal to raise the 3rd string to D instead of using the first string open. I realize this also raises your 4th string to B as well, but that would form a 13th chord, which would be permissable in this arrangement.
Hope that helps.
Sorry, all I can do in Swedish is smile

This "G or D on top" problem is one of the areas where the universal tuning is great because it has both which comes in very handy.

Bud Harger · From: Belton, Texas by way of Baton Rouge, Louisiana

John,

You are consistently amazing! Thanks for this tab...and keep them coming.

Best personal regards,
