GOOD EXCUSE-JOHN BUTLER TRIO
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning:STANDARD
This song is one of the best songs for guitar players up and coming.
This song absulutley sounds awsome on my 12 string.
Always play A and G as a bare chord because that is the way that the man him self JOHN
playes it.
