"Grey Street" >From the unreleased Dave Matthews Band album Lillywhite Sessions Transcribed by Matthew Grizzard (mattgrizz@telpage.net) This is a pretty easy but powerful song. Dave is playing a 12 string on this one, so it might sound different from the mp3 track. He also has his guitar tuned sharp by a hair. His is tuned halfway between an E and an F, but oh well. Here's the tab hope you like it. Feed back is welcome.
