A Long December - Counting Crows

A Long December is one of my favorite songs ever and I find this playing of
the song sounds fuller and more like the album version.
I've included a few tab riffs which include certain melody and lead parts to
give a more satisfying sound which resembles the album version of the song.
Tuning- A full step down or D Tuning
This riff is played at various parts after certain C chords which I
noted with an asterisk *
