This song is cool.... so i just want it to be on UG
Painter
performed by Norah Jones on "Come Away With Me"
composed by Lee Alexander/J.C. Hopkins
transcribed by Michael Blake (All his own work.)
The song is in the form AABA AABA with a piano solo
on the third and fourth A sections. The finger picking
is improvised. I tabbed it out from the first verse
as an example, but it's played slightly different each
verse.
