Imagination chords by Elvis Costello

Chords with lyrics

This is just an update I did over the summer.
The original tab came from Aaron Yarlas, and thanks
is owed to J. Cooper and Paul Andersen as well.
Any corrections are welcomed, and if someone was
inclined to do a bass-tab, well that would be swell.
N-joy,  will.
