Album: Yourself of Someone Like You
Song: Push
Transcriber: Tony Tamburello
Corrected: 5-7-97
Well, this is my first attempt at tabbing a song for
others. I love this tune! This is mostly
rhythm guitar with the essential lead stuff thrown
in. If you need the arpeggios, using barred major
chords sounds pretty good, not perfect though.
This version contains an correction from the last--
I had the wrong strings on the little outro from
the first half of the bridge. Hope I didn't
confuse anybody.
