Guitar Tabs for “Sitting Out” and “Sweet Hay”

Here are guitar tabs for two pieces I created and played this summer on Instagram live reels. The tabs are for illustration purposes and to save the ideas or themes of the pieces in a text format – in play, much improvisation is employed using the themes as form.
