Artist: Badfinger Title: Baby Blue Album: Straight Up/Greatest Hits Words and music by: Pete Ham Original tab by: Robert Leatherman Revised tab by: Chris Clark There's no need for a capo to play this breakup song (also covered by Aimee Mann), but it'd definitely a barre-chord monster. The fills and solos are tabbed for (cutaway) acoustic guitar, so stretch and hammer and fool around with different fingerings if the notes feel awkward on electric.
