------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HONEY, I DON?T KNOW WHY ? The Explorers Club ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Robbie Fogelsanger E-mail: n/a Tuning: Standard This is my first tab done by ear so listen to the song to get an idea for how it is played. Some chords are strummed and others you can hear them being arpeggiated by a second guitar. Have fun. It can also be played with a Capo on 1st fret, play same chords just in their different respective forms.
