Allen Stone - Is This Love
-----------------------------------------
This tab is transcribed from the live performence that Allen did on
"Mahogany Sessions", wich is absolutely amazing. I'll put the link to
the video down below.
In the video, i believe that the guitarist is playing in a different
tuning (possible Eb), and I hate to tune my guitar back and forth
all the time to play different songs. So, I made the decision to
transcribe it in standard tuning. The only negative effect of doing this
is that the "Eb-chord" in the verses tend to get a bit thin if you refer
to that open "Eb-chord" that the guitarist does in the video. Also, the
"Ab-chord", wich ends the song, sounds alot more richer in the video due
to the Eb tuning, that I once again believe that he is playing in.
I have choosen some variation chords (*) to freshen up the playing abit.
