What Would You Say (Dave Matthews)

Transcribed by Andy Citron ([email protected])

This version is derived from the versions already on OLGA.

I've added the following: 1) all the verses, choruses

and 'pre-choruses' in the order they appear on the album

(the studio version). 2)I also annotated where the 'stops'

occur and 3) denoted when the stop is on 'A' vs. 'G' chord.

4) I also annotated the 'break'. 5) I haven't included

the TAB for the guitar licks. They're in the other versions

already on OLGA.

and you came tumbling after
