Bedouin Song


------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bedouin Song by LIOR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by Hayden Jose haydskies@gmail.com Beautiful song by Aussie artist Lior. I searched and waited for a tab for this song for best part of two years but last week finally decided to write one myself. It is the first tab I've written, so sorry if anything is - it seems to be fairly accurate but feel free to modify it as you will if you think there are problems. Email me at with any questions, enjoy!
