------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balthazar - The Oldest of Sisters ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tim van Kester E-mail: Tuning: Standard For this tab, I used some live performances. Therefore, it may be that it sounds a little different to the album version. However, I still think the chords fit. Please comment if you have suggestions.

After that, repeat verse again. Again, play the chorus. Then, only play the second bar of the verse.
