The Man I Want To Be

Text File

Here is the complete song, minus the solo which I am working on and will add as soon as
finish it. Listen to the intro to get the slides down, it's pretty easy. I liked the
tab of this, but I sounds like he's playing a regular C and an Em instead of a Cadd9 and 
so I think this is 100% correct. Anyways here it is.

                       C                            Em   A
