 Subject: Dear Someone by Gillian Welch
 Song:  Dear Someone
 Written and Performed by:  Gillian Welch and David Rawlings
 Album:  Time (The Revelator), Acony Records 2001
 Notes:  3/4 time, played in G# (capo 1st), shown here as if played open for 
 simplicity-s sake.  I'm missing subtleties of this tune, esp. 4th line of the 
 verses and transition at the end of last verse before it repeats last line, 
 but it's too pretty a song not to have on the board, even if posted in this 
 admittedly incorrect state.  Chords in parentheses sound okay, but I'm not 
 sure about em.  I alternate D chords (see below).  The G7 might be a Gm7 or a 
 straight Gm(?).  All others are standard.  If you can fix it or refine it, 
 please send corrections or additions to Greg at cowpie@olga.net.  Thanks.
