Version 1 Version 2 
            Artist: John Martyn
Song: Over the Hill
Album: Solid Air (1973)

I found inspiration from the Chris and Rich Robinson "Brothers of a Feather" cover 
the song Over the Hill by John Martyn.
I've listened to both versions from Chris and Rich Robinson and John Martyn. It's 
an easy song to learn and fun to play.

Standard tuning but use the Capo and place it on the 5th fret of the guitar.
