ASLEEP - The Smiths

Tabbed by: Markus Björk

Originally played on piano, this tab is arranged for guitar.
My first tab, so it might be off in timings. But the notes are correct (the way I play
it) so learn it and make your own pace and pauses for the right sound.
This is like the main melody. Once you get the hang of it, try adding some extra notes
to fill it out.
Good luck!
