Artist: The Calling
Song: Adrienne
Album: Camino Palmero
Tabbed by: Ben Jakuben - bjj3@po.cwru.edu
The first time I heard this song I knew it would be one of my favorites.
I finally got around to putting the tab down on "paper", and I hope this
at least gives you a good start. I'm not sure how to tab some of the
effects, so I made notes to try to describe what I heard in the song.
