#9 Dream - John Lennon
E|E|E|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------||||
Written by: John Lennon
From: "Walls and Bridges" (1974), now on many Greatest Hits collections
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
One of Lennon's sweetest tunes. Large parts of the composition and the
production sound very much like Harrison - from the slide guitar intro
to the chord pattern in the chorus and outro recalling "My Sweet Lord".
