Hold But Let Go by Six Organs of Admittance
Hold But Let Go
Tuning is technically Open G (DGDGBD), but I leave the high e string as is (DGDGBe). It
just makes the fingering easier for me -- if you're a purist, you can adjust accordingly.
Tuning: DGDGBe

Around 2:30, Ben starts playing variations on that second part of the riff -- I’m not
sure what you would call it in terms of song structure... the bridge? I’ve just tabbed the
main riffs, listen for the variations and order.
