COLVIN SHAWN - "Sunny Came Home" Tablature

Official COLVIN SHAWN Tablature & Sheet Music »

is an updated version of the tab done for this song by
Michael Smith <d000205c@dc.seflin.org>. I have taken his tab
and made "a few small repairs" (i.e., changed a few chords,
fixed a couple of spelling errors, and added the chords to the
last two choruses and the ending).
