Christian Brothers

elliott smith - christian brothers tabbed by : nick verveniotis all down strums on the chords . tuning : whole step down . all the other tabs for this song are grossly inaccurate . mine is 99% correct . and the reason it isn’t 100% correct is because i’m using more strings in A given chord than elliott smith did himself . this results in a fuller sound .
