Song: Perfect to Stay (Acoustic)
Band: Collective Soul
Album: From the Ground Up
Tuning: Half—Step Down
Tabbed by: J.Griff (artificial_inside@hotmail.com)
Comments: This is my second Collective Soul tab. This version of the song is
from the album "From the Ground Up". It has the same chords as my Satellite
Acoustic tab, just played in a different order. Like I said in my other tab,
if you're a Collective Soul fan like I am, then you should definitely get
this album. If there are any corrections, let me know. Please rate and
comment.

Note: When you strum the D chord for the fourth time, play a D sus4.
You just place your pinky on the e string on the third fret.
It's pretty simple.
