Artist: The Paper Kites
Title: Paint
Tuning: Drop D
Capo: 2nd Fret

PS: If you want to avoid downtuning to Drop-D, all you have to do is put the capo on the 2nd fret while
covering strings 5 through 1, ie ie leaving the E string open.

PSS: Whereas the strings 2-5 are tabbed out relative to the capo on the 2nd fret, I'm tabbing the 6th string
relative to its open position, which means that wether you downtune to Drop D or just leave the 6th string
uncovered by the capo, the positioning will alway be the same.
