Calling You Jeff Buckley
GUITAR INTERLUDE
The strumming here is a bit unarticulated, but notice the chord
voicings and the Hendrix-esque fills.

CHORUS
These are the brilliant chord voicings. Buckley strums the notes again
here and there, but these notes are the essential ones.
The notes in parentheses ( ) are cool extra notes.

1.VERSE
This part is a bit of a stretch, but you can hear Buckley struggling too.

"
1. A desert to road from Vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little café just around the bend
2. A hot dry wind blows right through me
A baby is crying and I can't sleep
We all know a change is coming
Coming closer, sweet release
"
