=== Wedding Ring by Glen Hansard ===
====================================
This is my first tab so be kind. Open to any suggestions!
This song is pretty easy. It's really just three chord formations (E, A, and B7B7)
strummed with the thumb throughout. Note the upstroke and downstroke symbols
to indicate the rhythm. Listen to the album to get the feel for this one. Good luck!

v = upstroke
