Because He Lives

Post by John A. Russell »

Hey all

I met Jimmy Fortune a few times in Nashville and have just tabbed his version of "Because He Lives"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYM2saDPqnw

Have a listen to this song on Youtube!

If you would like a copy of my tab, leave your request here, with your email address and I will send it to you.

Offer open till the end of 2022.

Kind Regards

J. R.
