*This is all my own work and I've not gotten it from
anyone else*

Artist: The Byrds
Song: Draft Morning
Album: The Notorious Byrd Brothers (1968)
Writers: David Crosby/Roger McGuinn/Chris Hillman

Tabbed by a little soul

A Crosby tune with supposedly unauthorized lyric
variations by McGuinn and Hillman, this is one of
Crosby's best songs, a stark and delicate evocation of
the horrors of Vietnam. Conversely, it's one of the
most requested Byrds songs ever that hasn't been
tabbed, which I find incessantly curious because it's
remarkably simple. What confuses some people, I
suspect, is the vocal drone, but I don't see why,
because it doesn't really change the character of the
chords.

Tuning: Standard (EADGBE)
Time: 4/4

Chords: 
D - XX0232
C - X32010 or C/D - X30010*
G - 320003 or G/D - XX0003*
Dm- XX0231

*One can use these chords instead if one is weary or
unable to sustain the vocal drone!

Okay, let's start!

Intro: Cymbal. Then:
D (4 bars)

Then the verse begins. The vocal drone kicks in - a
Byrd (Hillman, I think) proceeds to hum a low D note.
The note is the same as an open D string on your
guitar, assuming it's tuned properly. He hums this
note, pausing for breath occasionally, all through the
verses. It's a lovely effect - it makes the C chord
really move - but the chords remain static.
D (8 bars)
C (4 bars)
G (4 bars)
D (4 bars)

Now if you don't want to do a vocal drone, replace C
with C/D and G with G/D.

That is the verse progression, done twice and the only
thing left is the noisy bit in the middle. That is
just a rapidly arpeggiated version of this:
Dm (4 bars)
G (4 bars)

and ends with many bars of a D chord (Hillman's little
bass solo).

Then there's another verse. And that's all, till the
ending, which is just a D chord with McGuinn playing
taps on top of it:

e --------2---2-5--5-2-------
B ---3---3---3--------------3
G 2-2---2-------------2--2-2-
D ---------------------------
A ---------------------------
E ---------------------------

And that's all there is. I hope y'all enjoyed that :)
