Sister Madly (N. Finn) NOTES: -- to play this the way it was originally played, all chords on the verses are bar chords: Em on the 7th fret, A on the 5th fret, and C on the 8th fret. -- in the tab of the Richard Thompson solo, the notation "11^" means to play the 11th fret but bend the note up (not necessarily all the way up to the tone of the 12th fret--just a quick, ornamental bend. you know, Thompson is famous for this kind of thing.)
