The Shadow Proves The Sunshine (Acoustic)
Nothing Is Sound
Tabbed by: Candace Ware
Tuning - Standard Tuning (E A D G B e)
(This is my first attempt at writing tab, but I just didn�t think any of the other
did this song any justice. I was listening to a live acoustic and I�m pretty sure these are
cords Jon uses (especially because these are the cords used in other songs like �Dare
To Move� and �Awakening�). Any feedback would be appreciated)
