Travis - Song to self
Ode to J. Smith (2008)
This tab has been made listening to a previous version of the song. To play it as it is
the album and single, skip the lines with the \ sign on the left. To play the other
(that according to me sounds even better), play those lines too and skip the 2nd verse. Enjoy!
