Sleeping Child Lyrics

SLEEPING CHILD
By: Michael Learns To Rock
(Music & words: Jascha Richter)
PLEASE NOTE: This is the first time ever I have tabbed a song
so if it sounds out... I'm sorry! 8) I'm only 16.
Also... I didn't take into account the timing for the tabs.
You will have to listen to the song to get the timing correct.
h-hammer on
p-pull off
