Chords with lyrics
corrections From: "Nathan Fenn"
Artist: Ben Harper
Song: Sexual Healing
Tabbed by: Brandon Geer
There are only two parts to this song (verse & chorous).
It is easy to learn and sounds good. This song is
not done on an album he only does it live.
Important: To get the effect of strumming that Ben
gets in his songs whenever there is a chord which,
needs to be strummed use your fingernails.
Ben also has it tuned down two steps but it doesn't
really matter. I recommend downloading the song to
get the rhythm.

The verse in the above is wrong although the alterations are minor.
The chord progression throughout the verse isn't
G+G / A minorAm / E minorEm / FF
The correct chords are
G+G / A minorAm / FF / C majorC
And they're played like this:
G+G A minorAm FF C majorC
---3--- ---0--- ---0--- ---0---

---0--- ---2--- ---2--- ---0---
---0--- ---2--- ---3--- ---2---
---2--- ---0--- ---0--- ---3---
---3--- ---X--- ---X--- ---X---
That's pretty much it, have fun
