This is the acoustic version of Sleep it Off (a criminally underrated LJT
b-side), I've designed this tab to be played with open chords wherever
possible (F# and C# being the exceptions). To see how this is played do your
homework and seek out the live acoustic version of this track, which I seem
to remember being a free download at some point. Enjoy!
