- | We Shall All Be Healed (or Rose Quarter Drifting) by the Mountain Goats | ||
- | transcribed by Ryan Greenlaw | ||
- | notes: the only recordings I've heard are played on piano in C, so that's what I'm transcribing here (even though I prefer to play it on guitar in a different key). also, the original has a weird key shift during the bridge, but I decided to keep it simple and stay in C. all chord names indicate two beats of that chord at about 70 BPM (in the original) | ||
