The Medicine -- 2008
Tuning - Standard (E A D G B E)
Below are 2 versions of the song. First are the standard chords for the
song and second is the way John plays it with a capo on the 2nd fret.
I will update this tab later w/ the main electric guitar riff parts.
They're not hard and you could probably figure them out on your own pretty easily.
