STRANGE CONDITION - Pete Yorn
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Paul C.
Email: pcorning@purdue.edu
Tuning: Std.
Like many other really good songwriters, Pete likes to take regular old chords
and do something weird to them (like leave off or add a finger) and it makes
his sound really dynamic & pretty. I'll put the regular note above the tabs
with a star to show it's been changed. If there's a "t" that means I fret the
note with my thumb.
Intro:
"Read me the letter, baby..." and then again for "Stories and cigarettes..."
