On the Weavers' reunion album (c. 1980) there is a song by Fred Hellerman entitled "Tomorrow Lies in the Cradle." Any ideas on what tuning his guitar is in, or on what chords are used to play this song? Than

|A - - |D/A - - |A7 - - |D/A - - |
|A - - |A - - |C#m7b5* - - |F#7 - - |
|Bm7 - - |F# - - |Bm7 - - |F# - - |
|Bm7 - - |C#7 - - |F#m7 - - |A7 - - |

CHORUS
|D - - |D - - |A - - |A - - |
|F#m7 - - |Bm7 - - |E7 - - |E7 - - |
|A - - |A - - |C#m7b5* - - |F#7 - - |
|Bm7 - - |E7 - - |A - - |D/A - - |A7 - - |D/A - - |

The first 4 bars of the verse are the intro vamp.

*C#m7b5 is played like this: x-4-x-0-0-(0), or x-4-5-4-(0)-(0).
