TAB: Stone Cold Yesterday - The Connells
Words & Music by Mike Connell
Transcribed by Tom Parker
This version is meant for one guitar. On the album, Mike Connell (Gtr. 1)
plays straight chords, while George Huntley (Gtr. 2 & 3) provides some
tasty fills and a nice simple solo. I'll tab fills for Gtr. 2 later....
This song is most easily played w/ a capo on 2nd fret for Gtr. 1. All
tabs (except for solo) are for fingerings w/ capo. So what's written
as "A" sounds as a "B" chord, and so forth.

Hey, get me out of this some way
I wouldn't feel so inhibited
Gotta get me out of this some way
I want to see

Stone cold yesterday
Changed her, it didn't change me
Don't it make you wonder, man

Changed her, it didn't change me
Don't it make you wonder, man

And I walk
And I breathe
And I try, no, it didn't change me
Don't it make you wonder, man
Stone cold yesterday
Changed her, it didn't change me
Don't it make you wonder, man

-----There it is, folks! Pretty simple. If you're a stickler for detail,
-----you'll find that some parts are a little different from the recording,
-----but this version is close AND playable on just one guitar. Enjoy!
