This is my first Elliott Smith tablature. It's in standard tuning, two half steps down. I play the E, F, and G with the same fingering, which makes chord changes quick. I strum this with my thumb on the bass runs and my first three fingers on the chord strums. I also play two two-note riffs after the Em's in the verses. -0-- -0-1-| --1- and -----| ---- -----| ---- -----| ---- -----| ---- -----| These might be lead guitar in the recording, but it's easy to add them solo.
