I really loved this song from the first time I heard it. At first, it may sound difficult with chord voicing and movement, but you'll get the hang of it. Hope it works out for you. Keep jazz alive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be Good (Lion's Song)-Gregory Porter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:Andrew Welch E-mail:welch05@mc.edu Key:Bb Capo:3rd fret IMPORTANT: I usually play this song with a the Capo on the 3rd. If you choose to do that, you must play the chords in G formation. i.e., the "Bb" becoming a "G". There is a legend at the bottom of the page for those transpositions. thanks!
