OPEN ROAD
As recorded by The Oli Brown Band
(From the 2008 Album OPEN ROAD)
Transcribed by tilleking
Words and Music by Oli Brown
Arranged by Oli Brown
Here are the main parts for the song, except for the high bit and the solo.
The track's from Oli's fantastic "Open Road" debut album (released by "Ruf"
records, and it sounds like he might use a plectrum on the recording, but I
finger-pick the riff, because I think it's easier.
