The Jesus And Mary Chain bass tabs for Sometimes always

About this song

"Sometimes Always" is a track by The Jesus and Mary Chain from their 1994 album "Stoned & Dethroned." It features guest vocals by Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star. The song was released as a single and became one of the band's most commercially successful songs. The track is known for its stripped-down acoustic sound, a departure from the band's usual noisy, feedback-laden style. The lyrics depict a tumultuous relationship, adding a layer of emotional depth to the song.
