Good job, this is great. Tough song to play. Elliott smith songs sound somewhat simple on the face, but once you dive in his songs they are so extremely complex that it sheds a light on his massively talented ability to write a good song
This song and new disaster are two of my most favorite songs to play, they’re beautiful. He was really prolific in his ability to write amazingly sad music true to his own style.
