And I Love You So Don McLean
"And I Love You So" by Don McLean
Taken from the "Favorites & Rarities" double CD. I think this TAB is rather
accurate. It's not always that easy to transcribe Don's guitar through all
the violins etc. that dominate part of the song, but I've done my best.
I honestly think that any mistakes are so small that they can be neglected.
Listen to the album. I know Elvis Presley also played this song.
This song is also available on the albums:
Tapestry
Solo
Greatest hits then and now
The best of Don McLean
Classics
Comments and corections are always welcome.
The lyrics follow after the TAB...
For original album tuning: Capo on 4th fret, but it's easier to
sing the chorus by playing in a lower key.
Have fun!And I love you so (Don McLean)Intro: (Play twice)
