John Butler Trio - Sometimes guitar tab
---- SOMETIMES ----
Music & Lyrics by John Butler
From the album "Sunrise Over Sea" By The John Butler Trio
Tabbed by - Hugh Klein - hugh@ausi.com
Tuning - CGCGCE
This tab will be missing subtleties but they can be filled
in by listening to the song, which is different everytime
it's played anyway. My interpretation has come from listening
to the album version and having seen him play it live once.
Corrections/suggestions are welcome.

* - This isn't actually played as a chord, but it sounds like
he just bars the 5th fret and plucks a few strings quietly.
