Jansch Bert - Tell Me What Is True Love guitar tab
Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (jamiephillips22@hotmail.com)
Artist: Bert Jansch
Track title: Tell Me What Is True Love?
Album: Rosemary Lane
Tuning: EADGBE
Short and sweet this one, but beautifully haunting and full of atmosphere. It's also really
easy to play and makes for a great right hand picking exercise! There are are number of ways
you can pick it; I prefer using my first two fingers, with the thumb playing the bass notes.
You may prefer just to use your thumb and forefinger, or give the other fingers a workout by
using various combinations. Make sure you let notes ring out as much as possible.
Rhythm: 4/4
