The wonderful 'Dawntreader' (all hail the mighty song) tuning is listed as DGDDGD. Having refrained from playing it since ruining it at French Joni Fest, today, as there was no-one around, I thought I'd tune up and give it a go. Playing with the G at the top made it quite peculiar on the shapes I was used to, so I re-checked on joni.com and found a couple of versions, one by Thomas Morris (Tuning=DADF#AD) and the one I used by Tino Meinen (DGDDAD) which makes much easier to play. The tuning in the new book (with the G instead of the A at the top) seems quite a faff to play. Does anyone (Sue, Dave, Marion and all you fine guitarists out there) know which tuning Joni actually used to play The Dawntreader? And can any of you play it as it is written in the new book with the G instead if the A?
