Adia by Sarah McLachlan
**CAPO 3; relative to capo**
So this tab is not completely accurate, however it is definitely accurate enough to play
for an audience without having them notice the difference in the chords. The Dsus2 might
be Dm, but it sounds fine as Dsus2. The C might be a C/G but again, it sounds fine. This
is a fairly simple song and if you plan out the dynamics right you can make a pretty good
impression with it. Because of the fact that this is being played on a guitar and not on
a piano, I've taken out the piano solo. Enjoy the tab, sorry if it's not helpful.
Anytime that there is an inserted asterisk it means to insert this riff:
