George Harrison
Deep Blue (1971)
(George Harrison)
Originally the B-Side of the single “Bangla Desh”.
Now a bonus track on the reissue of “Living In The Material World”.
It is of course possible to play this song without capo (just transpose two
steps up to get to the original key of B). I just like
the voicings suggested here and they are easy to play that way.
