Chord/Tab song: Shilo

#
#Here's Shilo from Neil Diamond.
#It's from my big sister's original Bang Records
#single.
#
#When I was a little kid, I worshipped Neil Diamond.
#My sister bought a ton of albums and singles in the
#late late sixties and early seventies,
#so this stuff is in my blood.
#
#I also want to mention that I think the totally
#undefinable Neil Diamond is still great. Granted,
#orchestrated slow ballads make my skin crawl, but he
#could/can kick and rock.
#
#
#So, here's my formal invitation to Neil Diamond
#to come up here to Minneapolis and do
#an unplugged or semi-plugged thing at 1st Ave.
#(If you need a second guitarist, send me mail).

/ Finger pick the intro riff as you sing - if you can't, the

When no one else would come
Shilo you always came
And we'd play
