"Because The Night" By 10000 Maniacs from MTV Unplugged
Tabed by Lukasz Ptasinski (einar@go2.pl)
It's my little try to write a tab to this great song. I tried to listen to the
MTV concert and do this best. I know it's not exactly what the band played
but I believe it's close. If you have better tabs please send them to me.
