Sometime To Return by Soul Asylum

Tabs 

Soul Asylum
Sometime to Return
from the CD "Hang Time"

Transcribed by Sean Carey ([email protected])

Guess it's my turn to finally contribute something
to the archives.

I have a few corrections to add to [email protected]'s
transcription (included at the end of this file).
It's basically right, but some of the notation is confusing,
I definitely don't agree with how the pre-chorus (bridge?) is
played, and I transcribed the solo and a key change that were
left out. As always, comments, corrections, etc. are welcome.
Anyway, here it is:

This is probably one of their best songs ever and my favorite disc. This is
the way my band played it so any suggestions or corrections would be
appreciated. Also, if anyone knows all the lyrics let me know. If you like
this let me know and I post more old Soul Asylum stuff.
