Over The Rainbow tab by Israel Kamakawiwoole

Tabs (Ver. 2)

• Capo on 5th

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

This version is more of a fingerstyle, the grace notes with the slaps aren't really necessary,
just thought they put a nice touch on it. Intro/Outro can just be a light strum pattern or
arpeggiated sounds nice too.

C majorC  Bm7Bm7   E minorEm  C/EC/E
