Tuning:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mumford & Sons - Band Name ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Various versions of this song exist, however none of have standard tuning along side the correct picking pattern. "Below My Feet" (also standard tuning) uses the precise picking pattern as Whispers in the Dark. Though maybe difficult to grasp at first, the complexity of this entire song revolves around the basic finger picking arrangement.
