I'll Be tab by Edwin Mccain
Guitar Tab
i'll be (acoustic version) by EDWIN MCCAIN arranged by: patrick naranjo first edit: 0124022206 second edit: 0203021341 finished by: 0203021454 - this song is the acoustic version. this is a lot harder to play than the original song, though with the same chords. - this song is quite difficult to play, with all the pluckings and the chord "DM7/Bb". but the chords are just repeating, only the pattern of strings to be plucked makes the differences. - if you guys would notice, there are no two or more strings plucked at the same time. so you better flex your fingers first before you play this tab, seriously! - i indicated the chords above each "tab staff" per chord change. that would help fix your fingers per chord rather than press the corresponding note per number. - probably at first it's hard to follow the timing. tip: try to listen with the music first then try to follow it. then you could try with a singer. or you could try to strum the chords first (as in the original song) and get to the flow. - honestly, this is less than 90% accurate, but good enough to fool the listeners for its 100% accuracy!
Enjoy the tab peepz! =)
