Son Volt - "Promise the World"
From the album "Notes of Blue"
Words and Music by Jay Farrar
Tab by Tim Prizer (tim_prizer@yahoo.com)
***On the record, Farrar plays this in an alternate tuning (a la Nick Drake). However, this is how the band
plays it live. These chords are taken from watching Farrar play the song live in Asheville, NC on 3/14/2017.
