Rocking Chair by Eric Bibb guitar lesson tutorial finger style blues [free tab]

Description

This is my best guess at how Eric Bibb plays this. There is no video footage that I could find that clearly shows what he is doing, so I used my ears and the fact that he tends to use drop D tuning a lot on his songs (he mentions this in interviews, too).
It is possible to play this in standard tuning - but it makes the fingering much more difficult.
Plus, the song is in D# (or Eb), so one would have to tune down a half step as well.
For all these reasons, and the way the notes ring, I think this is the way he plays it.
Feel free to let me know if you disagree! I'm always up for guitar discussions if they are good-natured...
