"I Love My Label" by Nick Lowe, from the 2008 Yep-Roc re-release of Lowe's
1978 solo debut, Jesus of Cool.
NOTES:
Chord table transcribed by Austin Scholl.
Guitars used in transcription process:
-Dean Boca 12-string
-Squier Stratocaster
-Ibanez Jolt/SE Acoustic
Chords are all fairly standard and only four are used.
The hardest thing to do when playing the song is switching chords while
keeping flow. Listen to the song for the rhythm. Also, keep in mind that
Lowe's singing isn't exactly in time with the rhythm, and I've set the
chords to follow the vocals.
Don't expect the lyrics to be totally accurate. This is also my first
tab/chord.
Chords used: A, D, E, G
