                             If Not For You - Shakey Graves
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
This tab is in no way perfect or complete, but I couldn't find anything when I 
wanted to learn how to play this song so I decided I should share what I've got
so far. I figured out the tuning and the chords by watching a live version. I 
tabbed the riffs based on what I heard in the recording and it sounds good when 
I play along, but I'm not 100% sure that they're right.  

Tuning: Open C# (Open D + half step down)

The chords used are C# F and F# with some occasional variations             

E|-----------------0--4-----5------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------0--4-----5------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------0--4-----5------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------0--4-----5------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------0--4(5)--5------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------0--4-----5------------------------------------------------|

[Verse]

Strum/Pick through the chords  C#(16x)  F(12x)  F#(4x)
          (you can play almost any notes as long as you hold the chords and it'll sound good)

The following notes are played while strumming C# (listen to the recording to know when):

E|-------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------|
B|-0--2--4--5---0--2--4--5-| |--------------------------------------------------|

[Chorus]

Strum the C# chord with energy (not actually sure what chord is used here but C# works well enough for me.
                    If anybody knows what chord it actually is please correct me)

Same as in the verse, the following notes are played while strumming

E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
