Sound Of White Chords by Missy Higgins Artist: Missy Higgins Album: The Sound of White (2004) Song: The Sound of White Tuning: Standard - EADGBE ***This song is quite piano based but uses guitar part way into it.

That's probably one of the easiest songs that I've ever heard, but still it's a killer.... Aussie artists : simple but bloody fantastic!
