America - Ventura Highway

Tabbed by Baddguitar

Here is an easier version of Ventura Highway. When America plays this song

live, they use 3 acoustic guitars. One for the Riff melody, one the Riff

harmony and the third for the chords. This arrangement is for one guitar.

Using a capo on the 2nd fret will allow the player to play the song in the

correct key but offers some easier open chords to play. The main Riff is

a bit easier since it includes open strings. To keep it simple, the riff

harmony is not played.

Listen to the song to get the palm-muted timing on the chord strumming.

Standard Tuning. Capo = 2
