the pillows
Ladybird Girl
Track #9 from the 2008 album "PIED PIPER"
=========================================
Tabbed by Pedro Macedo, A.K.A. Linkerman
Okay, this is the tab for the whole song, with the two guitars separated.
I hope you enjoy playing this song as much as i enjoyed tabbing it.
For those of you who want to play the Lead chorus on the G-string (no pun intended!)
to get a "treblier" sound, you can play it on the frets 1 to 6.
Comments and corrections are welcome!
