There aren’t many Fair to Midland tabs, and this is my favorite song off of
so I decided to tab this.
This is in standard tuning, although that isn’t what Fair to Midland plays in. This is
close what it sounds like on the album. It shouldn’t be hard to learn.
I’ll also say that this is my first tab, so I won’t be offended if you say something is
with it. Thank you.
