John Butler Trio

Text File

Words and Music: John Butler Transcribed by Frank Podmore Tuning-CGCGCE. John uses a 12 String with one of the strings removed (the octave G)so if playing a standard 6 String this won't sound quite right. There's a lot of slide in this song, but I haven't mentioned where 'coz you should be to hear where it's used. If you really can't tell, get another hobby.

Just screw around with it, make it your own & enjoy yourself.
