Only Life - The Feelies
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Rachel
Email: rvandeve@mscd.edu
Tuning: Both Guitars - E A D G C e
It's also very possible to play this song in
standard tuning, but by raising the B string
up a whole step, it makes a very easy song even easier.
If you're unsure of which note "C" is, match
the open "B" string to the fifth fret note of the "G" string.

sorry, B to C is a half step, not a whole step like I wrote. the tab is correct, apparently my music theory training is not.
