The song "Sand" first appeared on the 1997 album Whirlygig by the Lovemongers, a side project of Heart's Ann & Nancy Wilson. Heart later recorded the song for their 2010 album Red Velvet Car. The Heart version is tabbed here.
The song is in the key of A Major and the tab includes three different ways it can be played. The main tab is based on the way Nancy Wilson's guitar is tuned for the song. The tuning is Open A at the 5th fret. (Tune to Open E and capo at the 5th fret.)
When Heart plays the song live, Ann also plays guitar. Her guitar is in Standard tuning and capoed at the 2nd fret. Below the main tab are chord diagrams and a chord chart based on her guitar part.
For anyone who doesn't want to re-tune or use a capo, stay in Standard tuning and play the chords shown above the tab staff, whatever fingering you like. All three ways of playing the song are in the same pitch as the studio recording.

In 1980 Vancouver band Doug and The Slugs released their debut album Cognac and Bologna. The album's first single was the Top 20 hit "Too Bad". (The Intro of that song was the Riff-In-A-Jiff entry for May 21, 2012.) The follow-up single was "Chinatown Calculation", the Intro of which is tabbed here.
A Trew Holiday Gift is a four song digital EP that was released in 2011. It was included as a free bonus for anyone buying The Trews' Hope and Ruin album from the band's online store. The EP featured the Christmas song "Coming Home". Lead singer/rhythm guitarist Colin MacDonald spoke about the song in a December 2011 interview with The Casket, a weekly newspaper published in Antigonish, Nova Scotia (The Trews' hometown):
"Peace Of Mind" was the first single drawn from The Grapes Of Wrath's second album, Treehouse (1987). It was also the first single to chart for the Kelowna, BC band, peaking at #56 on the Canadian RPM chart.
