Summer Of 69 Acoustic Chords & Tabs
Summer Of 69 Acoustic Tab
This is basicly correct. You can't really hear the finger-picking that good, but I
think this is the right one. The other tabs on this site are good only these 2
strings that you need to pick didn't were in those other acoustic versions.
So basicly I corrected a tiny bit in the finer-picking section. Anyways...
EDIT: This should be the Acoustic version. I forgot to put it behind the title
of the song. Sorry for that, so if anyone can fix it, that will be appreciated.
Tuning is standard: EADGBe
No Capo
