Auto-scroll
Speed:
1.0x
Chords
From "Turn"(1999)
Notes:
An attempt at getting this tune right in all its surprising subtleties.
Other tabs use Sean's (easier) capoed part, but Alan's uncapoed part is
a bit more distinctive, including on the LP version his Takamine 12 string,
(also heard on GOIN' UP and TROIS NAVIRES DE BLE)
