EMMYLOU - First Aid Kit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Macast
Tuning: Standard (EADG)
This is a simple bass line, however it is vital to the song having it's warm sound. You can add in your
own notes in between to add more of a step up and step down of notes, however, on the track these are
the only notes which are used. Each tab is for the lyrics below it, so follow the lyrics and play whichever
notes are above the lyrics when playing. Have fun!

When it's you I find like a ghost in my mind

Now so much I know that things just don't grow
If you don't blessed them with your patience
And I've been there before I held up the door
For every stranger with a promise
But I'm holding back, that's the strength that I lack
Every morning keeps returning at my window
And it brings me to you and I won't just pass through
