------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOVE YOU BETTER - Oh Land ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Ndermawan E-mail: [email protected]
Tuning:Standard
No Capo, or Capo 2 and tranpose accordingly since those chord shapes seem easier
I usually listen to Oh Land for thumping beats and sweet hooks so I was really refreshed to hear some of this stripped back stuff! Great song :O
I know there is another tab of this song with 5 stars but I reckon it is missing a few things and could still be improved upon - which I have done here.
