Album : Uh Huh Her (2004)
Tempo : 148
E-mail: gwendal.mollo@orange.fr

Hard to transcript here because the tuning is down about around 0.40 semitone.
Plus I think she play with a different tuning than "standard", I say maybe around one step down.
But you can play this with normal tuning, sound good too.
On live's video, the E5 is played Em in alternance with D5 (xx023x)
