Elliott Smith - Everything Means Nothing To Me
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard
Easy song, and heartbreaking. Gotta love it. Piano arranged for guitar, obviously. It
key quite a bit, so it'll be a bit harder to sing than your average Elliott song =]
