So Sad About Us – Pete Townshend and Paul Weller
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Pete Townshend
Live (Royal Albert Hall), 2000
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
The guitars are tuned down two steps (D-G-C-F-A-d). I transcribed the
performance for standard tuning. If you drop the tuning of your guitar,
you'll have to transpose this chord sheet +2 to match the original recording.
