I figured it out one day while playing with the G major and C major scales at the first to 3rd fret— I think that Garcia loves to play most of his song introductions on those scales around that area of the neck — enjoy ! THE WHEEL GRATFEUL DEAD E————————————————————————————————— B——————————————————————————————— G——————————————————————————————— D———————————0———————2———————0—— A——————————————2—————————————— E—————3——3——————————————3———— the best way to play this is just to use a regualr G chord —and mess around like playing Pink Floyds "Wish You Were Here" till you get the melody correct. you also can substituite the open D string for D on the 5th string at the 5th fret, and try using the G as an open string.... enjoy ! Any feedback would be appriciated . jason
