Song

Dover

my secret people

taken from the album:

"I was dead for 7 weeks in the city of Angels"

By: jh jr.

This is a great song of Dover, it took me some time to figure it out. It's a little bit

tricky cause the 2nd guitar is tuned Drop-D and the 1st one is tuned normal, but they play

the same chords almost all time (except for 1st guitar is doing some solo stuff).

P.s. maybe i've counted one or two chords too much or too less sometime, so don't give too

much on the number, but the chords themselves are absolutely right.
