Just Like a Woman - Richie Havens Tuning DADF#AD Sorry folks, but you will need to bar with your thumb to get some of these chords. I'm assuming if you really want to play Richie's version of this song you'll already know what I mean. Richie begins the song gently and plays more percussively from the start of the bridge. Where I have indicated to play either D run 1 or 2 I have gone for what Richie normally plays but he tends to vary things as he sees fit. If you are a fan of Richie's style of playing it is really worth persevering with this song as it contains just about all the chords and sequences in his repertoire and will prepare you for many of his, dare I suggest it, easier songs.
