String Of Pearls by Soul Asylum

Tabs

String of Pearls
Soul Asylum
Let Your Dim Light Shine

This is a funky cyclical kinda song, that's also pretty simple to play.
Strum with a 1 1-2-3-1 rhythm (listen to the cd and you'll get it easy).
I like to play the first "E" in the series in open voicing, and the
second as a barre chord, for variety's sake. This is my first posting,
so bear with me. Comments/hoots of laughter to Chad ([email protected])
