"There Is A Stone"
John Smith
NOTE: I concentrated on what the left hand does. There is some fine fingerpicking,
but I am just not able to find that out.
In the Intro part there are 3 x 8 bars ('!' is 1, '. . .' are 2, 3 and 4),
in the Verse parts the tabs are written above the words, just like chords.
Drop D tuning: DADGBe
Capo 3rd fret (all tabs relative to capo)
