She Couldn't Change Me Montgomery Gentry
This is a correction of my former submission. (The format was scattered
because I used the tab key) Also note that you can drop this into the key
of "E" without any problem, here is the transposition:
F=E ; Bb=A ; C=B ; Dm=C#m
NOTE: The reason it is originally done in "F" is to get a swooping
hammer-on effect* primarily going into the chorus. Also, I used (C) and
(rif) in the chorus to annotate a predominate Bass part.
