El productor Matt Serletic, recién habiendo terminado de ayudar en convertir a "Shine" de Collective Soul en una pieza imprescindible para MTV, conoció un tipo llamado Rob Thomas, un escritor habilidoso de Orlando que estaba buscando un lugar. Serletic y Thomas probaron músicos en busca de un par de personas que podían apoyar la obvia habilidad de Thomas de escribir buena música de pop. Thomas, nacido en Alemania como hijo de militares, ya había tocado con el baterista Paul Doucette y el bajista Brain Yale en varias bandas locales.

This is my very simplified version of Matchbox 20's "UNWELL" It may look a bit different than some of the others because I transcribed it for solo acoustic guitar (many guitars were used in the original recording). This version's limited to 5-chords. Feel free to use variations and extensions of these chords. Questions/comments etc . . . [email protected] Transcribed Jan 23, 2004 - thanks - Ian C.T. vom Saal
