Elliott Smith – Alphabet Town (Guitar Tab)

ELLIOTT SMITH – ALPHABET TOWN I think that this is the right tab of this song. I figured it out watching his live performance of 1995 shooted by mary lou lord and listening to the original version. I hope I have written it as well as I play it. It's not so difficult. Enjoy! E 022100 E* 022102 A7 x02022 C/G 332010 F# 244322 Am x02210 C#m x46654 F 133210 B aug\Gb 22100x B7 x21202 Intro E
