------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOVER YOU SHOULD'VE COME OVER - Jeff Buckley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Joe Hoblyn Email: hoblyn.01@hotmail.co.uk Tuning: Standard This song is in triple metre 6/8 time, so has a triplet feel. This is just what I heard from listening to the song, so I'm not certain all the chords are completely perfect, but it plays fine along with the recording. I named a few of the chords wrong in the tab, for example 9th chords like D9 and Em9 are actually added 9th chords. The tab is written with just block chords, so listen to the song yourself to get the rhythm of the chords and phrase them how you feel is right. Any chord mentioned should be tabbed out fully earlier in the song. Enjoy!
