Guitar Tab
!From: Steven "If You Could Only See" by TONIC >From the album LEMON PARADE (1996) Words and Music ny Emerson Hart Transcribed by Matt Wilson (jackel20@prodigy.net) Me and a couple of friends use to play this song a little while back. I figured out all of the parts, and I'm pretty sure they are right. It's a fun song to play, and it's not that difficult. If you have any comments or corrections, you can e-mail me. ***Capo 1st Fret on all guitars (Capo is shown as being the nut) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Am C G5 G5/F Asus2 Cmaj7/E G6 Fmaj7#11?

The beginning is with only an acoustic. The stumming varies, so I'll just
show the chords.You'll have to listen to the song to get the excact rhythm.
