Album: Raygun EP

Music and Lyrics by Matthew Good � 1996 dunharrow music / gennsongs /
emi april music (Canada) ltd. (SOCAN)  Matthew Good

This is a really sweet sounding song. It's all acoustic, with two guitar tracks,
no drums or bass, and a capo on the second fret of both guitars. Here it is.
(In 3/3 time)

There is no intro, it goes straight into the first verse.

Guitar one is all chords, so I'll tab them out here.

Chorus

Verse 2 Guitar 1 and 2 do the second half of the first verse.


Solo

Guitar 1 Repeats first part of verse indefinitely (song fades out at the end)

The tab is written as best I can determine until the song fades. The solo starts
in the third
bar of the section.
