Time signatures used in this song: 4/4, 8/4, 2/4, 6/8, 12/8. For most beginners they

per measure, instead of the regular four. The time signature 8/4 is just 4/4, but each beat

These are the rather complicated looking tabs for the song 'Growing Pains' by Deas
from their new CD, Birds and Cages. Sorry I couldn't get the lyrics in with it... As
the times work, if you play along with the song, you'll get it all worked out. I tried
