Seashell from the album Naive
WRITTEN BY MICKY BRAUN AND DUSTIN WELCH
I saw the other tab on here for this and while I like it, I wanted to play in key with the song,
so here's what I got. I think it's pretty accurate. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, it's a great
song.
C Am C
- To play the walk to : hit the 5th string 3rd fret (top note of ) then 5th string 2nd fret
Am
then hit the open 5th string with hand in
- I haven't tabbed the solo yet, but it's mostly variations of the 2nd & 3rd fret of the bottom two
strings from what I've got so far, will try and get it here soon
- The song sounds best if you pick the chords not strum them
Capo 4
