Marley Medley (Guava Jelly: This Train) Guitar Tablature
Song: Marley Medley (Guava Jelly/This Train)
Band: Sublime
Album: Bradley Nowell and Friends Accoustic

Transcribed by: John Matejka

This song uses all barre chords, so it isn’t terribly difficult.
Brad has a pretty odd rhythm at times in the song, so it’s kinda 
hard to keep up with, much easier to just play alone your own way 
after you figure out how it's supposed to sound.  Enjoy!

                               A slow raked "G" chord after the 
                               "C" gives it a little finality.)
