                    Spring To Come - John Butler Trio
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all I'd like to thank John Butler and his current and former bands for creating
such impressive, intense and beautiful music!

This tab only contains the awesome interlude and outro part because the other parts are
perfectly explained by John Butler himself in this video:

It was quite confusing to identify the timing of the melody along base-rhythm. I think I
finally figured it out correctly, so I thought: Let's share it!
If you have problems with the rhythm have a look at the video-link at the top. In the
end John plays the part really slowly, perhaps that helps you to get a feeling for the
timing. Also it is important to use the thumb for playing the base-notes G and D (or C
and D) in order to stick to the beat.
I hope there are no major mistakes in this tab nor my language, if else please use the
comment-section. :)
