- Fond Farewell -
by Elliott Smith
Album: From A Basement On The Hill
Tabbed by Dries Meijer, Holland
When you listen on the album you can clearly hear that Elliott uses Barré chords
instead of normal chords witch you see on other tabs. So I can pretty much say that
this is the closest you can get. At the bottom of the tab you can see the chords. Have
fun with my first tab.
