This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.
Song
Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (jamiephillips22@hotmail.com)
Artist: Bert Jansch
Track title: Tell Me What Is True Love?
Album: Rosemary Lane
Tuning: EADGBE
Short and sweet this one, but beautifully haunting and full of atmosphere.
It's also really easy to play and makes for a great right hand picking
exercise! There are are number of ways you can pick it; I prefer using my
first two fingers, with the thumb playing the bass notes. You may prefer
just to use your thumb and forefinger, or give the other fingers a workout
by using various combinations. Make sure you let notes ring out as much as
possible.
Rhythm: 4/4
