Sister Moonshine

Supertramp

NOTES: This is for the album version, not the Roger Hodgson live version, and has been arranged for one guitar. Sounds best on a 12-sring. I tried to get close as possible, but towards the end of the song the guitar(s) start getting lost in the mix. At that point, use my tab as a reference.
