                             Tilikum - Benjamin Francis Leftwich
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|| 
Tabbed by: Sam Powell

Tuning: Standard (Capo 7th)

Living in York, I've been following Ben from his earlier days.
So glad to see him back in the game after a rough couple of years!

There aren't any videos of Ben playing this track yet as it's just come out, so it's highly 
likely that the
layout may change once some footage surfaces during his upcoming tour. I know he's prone to 
DADGAD.

Closing note: I'm 99% sure Ben has his acoustic tuned differently for this, as it doesn't sound 
like he is
playing the open B string, but rather a G#. Regardless, it's close enough in standard!
