Asleep At The Wheel Chords & Tabs
Written by Something For Kate.
Published by Mushroom Music Publishing
Tuning: Standard (CAPO ON 3RD FRET)
------------------------------------------------
These chords are not what Paul plays on the
album, but they sound like the song. I haven't
put any strumming patterns on here.
------------------------------------------------
Some of the chords in this song you could play
a couple of different ways, so I've just written
what sounds best on my guitar. I'm welcome to
any corrections.
------------------------------------------------
All chords are assuming you have the capo on.
