Despite The Tears by The Seedy Arkhestra Ukulele Chords

Words and Music by Chris Dowd of Fishbone and Jeff Buckley
Tabbed by Petsky Piyamaradu

This is a fantastic song which hasn?t gotten one zillionth of the attention it deserves.
Still, if any raving Jeff Buckley or Fishbone fans care to try it out, here it is.

It?s easiest to play with a capo on the second fret, so everything in this document is
two semitones below sounding pitch.

Enjoy! Rock on!
