First tab sumbitted by me so be kind...
This awesome song was written by genius songwiter Jimmy Webb about another songwriting
legend and his personal friend, PF Sloan. I don't own the copyright and no infringement
or offence is intended.
Rumer's version of PF Sloan (downloaded from itunes) is 1 note down from the below tab,
but the submitted chords are all simple to play and only includes 1 bar chord with
the key change right at the end of the tab. You could tune your guitar down if you wanted
to play along with the song, but this is right enough.
Fo the F note I play. For the G/E just play a run down of the C chord, try..
E A D G B E E A D G B E
*-3-3-2-1-1 *-2-0-0-1-3
Have fun...
