John Butler Trio - Funky Tonight

transcribed by Damian Smith (pondlife87@hotmail.com)

Open C (CGCGCE), capo 4

You'll find this easier if your picking thumb can operate independently of your
fingers, so that the rhythm chords take care of themselves while you play the bassline.
Just play the two-note chord on the high G and C strings with your fingers and everything
on the three lowest strings with your thumb and you'll have no problems.
