Randy Stonehill — Puppet Strings
Words & Music By Randy Stonehill Transcribed by Brent Pacheco This is the version from Welcome To Paradise, transcribed as closely as I could from listening to the album. There are some variations on the album, but this is the basic gist of it. I've also added chords that can be adequately substituded rather than playing exactly what it tabbed out. Let me know if you find any mistakes!
