Tabs
Title: Humble Me Artist: Norah Jones Tabbed by: Stuart Lowe Note: There is a "Eb" root note in the chorus on the word "knees" and "please" in the original recording. This suggests it was probably played on a 7-string guitar, perhaps using a capo. I have tabbed this to be playable on the 6-string guitar most of us own, with open strings, that is no capo. I have used "B" to replace the "Eb" which works just fine.
