From: * (Matthew R. Fifer) Here's my latest Lightfoot tab offering: I'm Not Supposed To Care. I would appreciate any comments or corrections being emailed or posted, and questions can be mailed straight to me. I've checked it out fairly well, but it seems I usually miss something tiny. :-( Also, this appears to have come out a bit wider that 80 columns, so if you have the luxury of using a *really* small font, please do so, especially to print. Sorry this is so long. It just seemed it had to be that way. I tried to make it as short as possible without (hopefully) making it confusing. Enjoy!!!=================================================================================== (c) 1976 Moose MusicSong Notes: ----------This song is played using a capo on the third fret. The chords are based on the apparent key of A. This is a bit of a difficult song to tab by hand, so I expect it won't be a snap to read immediately. I recommend printing it out and making yourself familiar with the chord structures and then working your way through the song. It is quite a pretty song , so take your time and work the whole thing out!!!THE CHORDS: ----------A A/G# A/F# D E7sus4 =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== | | | | | | | | | |
