    The Weight by the Band?

    Wow, I just heard that on the way home!

    I'll put it on and get back to you in a few.

    Ok, well, I haven't even played since before I left for India in December!

    I think my guitar's close to in tune, so it's in A

    If it's the very first intro, try playing an open A chord
    Accent the A string, then play the 4th fret on the E string (G#), 2nd fret (F#), open E,
    then the D chord using the D string as the root.

    It's not really a chord progression, just the notes: A, G#, F#, E over the A chord, ending with the D chord.


    haha, that's a lot of words and I'm not sure I know what I meant either! :D
