Chords

From: Steve-o Bananafish Note: The solo guitar line is marked as being tuned EADGBE. It's a different guitar. It doesn't really matter, however: since the solo line doesn't go down to the 6th string, you can play both parts on the same guitar without trouble. Chords used: Em (222000), D (000232), G (550003), Bm (x44322) [Intro] Em Em Em

Who will stand alone?

We sat in the garden, we stood on the porch

I won't deny myself, - we never talked
[Verse 2]
D                    D

On her toes and she jumped like a fish

If I am one to follow...
