Frot ( тексты песен и аккорды на Tekst-pesni.ru ): [email protected] (Matthew R. Fifer)
Here's my latest Lightfoot tab offering: I'm Not Supposed To Care. I
would appreciate any comments or corrections being emailed or posted, and
questions can be mailed straight to me. I've checked it out fairly well,
but it seems I usually miss something tiny. :-(
Also, this appears to have come out a bit wider that 80 columns, so if you
have the luxury of using a *really* small font, please do so, especially
to print.
Sorry this is so long. It just seemed it had to be that way. I tried to
make it as short as possible without (hopefully) making it confusing.
Enjoy!!!
I'm Not Supposed To Care, by Gordon Lightfoot, from the album Summertime Dream
(c) 1976 Moose Music
Song Notes:
----------
This song (Texts of songs ) is played using a capo on the third fret. The chords are based on the
apparent key of A. This is a bit of a difficult song (Texts of songs ) to tab by hand, so I
expect it won't be a snap to read immediately. I recommend printing it
out and making yourself familiar with the chord structures and then
working your way through the song (Texts of songs ). It is quite a pretty song (Texts of songs ) , so take
your time and work the whole thing out!!!
