Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
John Lennon
#9 Dream (1974)
(Lennon)
From: "Walls and Bridges" and numerous Greatest Hits collections
One of Lennon's sweetest tunes. Large parts of the composition and the production
sound very much like Harrison - from the slide guitar intro to the chord pattern
in the chorus and outro recalling "My Sweet Lord".
