Sister Luck Chords & Tabs
Sister Luck
The Black Crowes
Tabbed by Stephen Carass/Quaver
Hey, i always wanted to see a good tab of this song, but i new got one: so i decided to
down for 20 minutes and figure it out in standard tuning - the original will most likely
in an open tuning - perfectly. This is what i came up with:
D= Down stroke
U= Up stroke
(I only use this key when its nessecery)
