This lovely day
By Donovan
From the soundtrack from the motion picture Brother Sun Sister Moon (It was just
for download on I-Tunes. Check it out if you are a Donovan fan)
Tabbed by Matthew C. (moc0007@gmail.com)
This Song uses a specific picking/finger-picking pattern. Try to use bass strings as
as the high ones. And hammer-ons are your friend just the same as his other acoustic songs.
