------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Firstborn - J.Tillman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: -Sanders- Email: vanhoof.sander@telenet.be Tillman writes simple yet complex songs in terms of rhythm and hammer-on's so I advice you to listen to the song to get both right. This might not be 75% accurate but I've been playing it with the track/youtube recordings etc and I think it sounds great I'm not a chord freak so I'm not sure which is which . . . . . that's why I'm gonna define them with slightly orthodox names. the small x stands for idk what the real chord is . . . . so cut me some slack.
