Blue Shadows


Every tab I found for this song aside from the intro was junk, so I studied the movie carefully. Problem is the song modifies more to piano, so I tried to just go with the spirit of the song. To be accurate, you've got to tune your strings more flat, but I think staying in standard tuning is fine. I tried to include chords to help set up your fingers right.
