Richard Thompson - I misunderstood ---------------------------------- Tabbed by Bjoern Ahrens (nma-tabs@gmx.de) Taken from the live album "A rare thing LIVE" This is the best I could come up with; Richard might be using some alternate tuning. I'm thinking the chorus might be played on two guitars; however, this version should do fine. Capo on 3rd fret. All notes and chords relative to capo.
