From Sevens (1997). Sevens is the seventh studio album by American country music artist Garth Brooks. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Vintage II 1963 Telecaster through a Fender '65 Twin Reverb Reissue, the nearest rig we use for Garth Brooks' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
