Good Mother (written by Jann Arden)
Performed by Terri Clark ("Fearless" Mercury Records 2000)
Tabbed by Dale Krysinski (1/2003)
Intro and verse:
[C] [G] [Am] [FaddG]

Play this over and over. During the verse, Terri adds a note or two (F, C) at the
end of the FaddG measure to transition back into the C. At the end of a verse,
Terri adds another measure of FaddG.
