I ASKED the professors who teach the meaning of life to tell
me what is happiness.
And I went to famous executives who boss the work of
thousands of men.
They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though
I was trying to fool with them
And then one Sunday afternoon I wandered out along
the Desplaines river
And I saw a crowd of Hungarians under the trees with
their women and children and a keg of beer and an
accordion.

[@NoopNup]

Yep!

[@vladislavpowerman2131]

Tuning is correct for Vadim's guitar, but incorrect for Aleksandr's, who is using the old gypsy "minor" tuning: D-A#-G-D-A#-G-D

[@luke88martin]

[@wouldyoukindly2169]

Isn't this the song he played part of with Eugene Hutz on The Pied Piper of Hutzovina documentary?

[@alanaleabdallah9210]

ocurrence on the border

[@vomitodemosca]

Yes it is, and part of it appears in Occurrence on the Border lyrics

[@FinnBjerke]

wonderfull could tuning Be DGBDGBD makes more sense to me.

[@kpcart]

yes, sorry, i wrote it from top string down.

[@vladislavpowerman2131]

In this specific case, the tuning is DA#GDA#GD (from 1st to 7th). Old Gypsy tuning, is almost entirely forgotten now.
