Brother - Matt Corby
Tabbed by: Zlash
E-mail: sliderheerst@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Capo 2nd fret
Note: This tab is largely based on his live/acoustic/unplugged versions, rather than the
actual album version, with more fingerpicking applied than if you would play with a
full band (like the studio version).
Thus also titles acoustic, but it's basically the same arrangement.
