The chords given in the body of the song are for standard tuning with a capo 2nd fret as per the
studio recording - however I saw Mick play this live a couple of times and he played it on the guitar with the
tuning he was fond of at this time of Double Drop D (which Reynard In Paradise is in) so if you wish to use
this then I have given the chords for this below - If I can source a live version of this I will add it in
when I find it
CAPO A D E Bm7
E|-2--|---2---0---2---4---|
B|-2--|---2---3---0---3---|
G|-2--|---2---2---1---2---|
D|-2--|---2---0---2---4---|
A|-2--|---0---0---2---2---|
E|-2--|---X---0---2---X---|
Notes: Line 75 - Keeking, keek is Scots for peek, Peek-A-Boo is called Keek-A-Boo in Scotland and on Line 83
the backing "Oooh oooh" vocals borrow the melody from "Walk Like A Man".
