Coeur De Pirate - Slow Show (The National cover)
Tabbed by Curtis Bowal
Beautiful song by a beautiful lady, originally performed by one of my personal favorites, The National.
From Em to Am9 is just lifting your finger off of the D-string and not playing the e-.
Listen to the song for the strumming pattern and the correct timing to do the pull-off.
