The Black Crowes
She Talks To Angels
Tabbed By Stephen Carass/Quaver
Hey, on this tab im going to tab both the standard tuning version and the open E Tuning.
original one is done Open E, but for beginners; I'm going to do standard to save you
the trouble.
I heard once heard in a guitar magazine - Total Guitar (Europe's best selling guitar
- that this song was done in Open D actually, but bollocks to it. Enjoy anyway.
D = strumb down
U = strumb up
Intro:
Note: Let the open notes on the E and B string ring thoughout.

If your jamming to this in standard and you have a second guitarist or a band; the other
could strumb both of these E notes from the same octave to create the dramatic ringing
just before the chorus. I thought of putting this down because you don't get the correct
if you play just the E, but it sounds awesome still even if you don't use the
E notes.

Im sure you can figure out the order and the interlude. The interlude is built from the
of the intro.
Hope you have enjoyed, please rate, comment and correct.
