Ha Ha Tonka — Close Every Valve to Your Bleeding Heart
Standard tuning with a capo on 2, and all chords here are ignoring the capo
During the verses he sometimes alternates between playing with just the top 3
strings in an F* chord, and the D, G, and B strings in a C chord.
This isn't exactly the picking pattern he uses each time, but this is the "bones" of it.
