Nothing Compares To You Chords & Tabs
Nothing Compares To You Chords
This is a cover Dustin did from a live bootleg called Ursus Veritas. He doesn't
play every verse/chorus consistently throughout, but I tried my best to tab it so
you can play along to his version.
Feel free to post any questions/comments/corrections in the comments section! (No,
I'm not figuring out the strumming pattern)
