Artist: Zac Brown Band
Song: "Toes in the Sand"
I tabbed this in 2005 originally from a live show at his Lake Oconee restaurant way before they
started selling out amphitheaters & winning Grammys, so if there are variations by now, then
just know that I tabbed it from the aforementioned version, lyrics & all.
NO CAPO -- LIVE
I think he uses a Capo on 2 if you've heard the Album version.
Chords for that are in the comments below. I play the G as a barred chord .
