Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
Memories
(1968)
From: "2nd to None"
The recording is somewhere between G# and A - The first version I suggest
here is in G. Use a capo 1st fret to play in G#. I added a second version
version in A, too.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1 (G major; use capo 1st fret to make it sound G#)
