Biography:
Striking Matches is an American duo consisting of guitarists/songwriters Sarah Zimmermann and Justin Davis.
Zimmermann, a Philadelphia native and Davis, from Atlanta, met when a professor at Belmont University paired them at random to play for a classroom full of guitar majors. The pair has been writing and performing ever since. Their influences range from Jerry Reed to the Beatles, John Mayer to Patsy Cline, and back again.
It becomes more obvious every day that they were born to play music together.

The tuning is standard. 1/2 step down to take advantage of the open strings. It's
played fingerstyle, so use as few bar chords as possible. The Bm is particular is played
with only one or two strings to get the right voicing. There are some other altered
chords, but this is an accurate tab of the song, unlike the others.
