Name: Everything I Own
Artists: Bread
Transcribed by: Jason Yankee of Rogersville, TN
Note: This is all my own work.
Note: This is an improvement of my last transcription.
Note: The note after the slash (/) is the bass note
it is played by the left hand of the keyboard player.
It is not important for the guitarist.
Note: If a chord does not have a slash (/) then
assume the bass note is the same letter as the
chord. For example the bass note for the 
A augmentedA chord would
be the A augmentedA note.
