Come - Adrianne Lenker
Tuning: D, E A D G B E
Tuning is Dsus4: DGDF#GA
I wanted to make a tab for this song that was a little easier to follow
and read as you're playing, especially for phone users where the tabs can sometimes
be reformatted to fit the screen but in a confusing way that can mess up you're playing. Also, the other tab
under this song doesn't include all the lyrics, so this one does. I did that to try and help
with the timing. But I would highly recommend also listening closely to the song to figure out
exactly when each chord changes in realtion to the lyrics, as it can get random at times and you can't
really pinpoint it unless you listen.

[Shapes/"Chords"]
These aren't the actual chords to the song. I just made educated guesses as I
needed to name each chord for the purpose of being able to write them in with
the lyrics. I would have done numbers if I could.

Whenever a chord is in parentheses () it means that you play it for
half of the time of the picking pattern (2 rounds instead of 4 rounds if that makes sense)
