The song "The Day I Met You" from the album Psychoschizophrenia. I hope it
makes somebody go out and discover the wonderful music that Lillian Axe makes.

slow down
This is a beautiful and simple song that has only one voice and one
acoustic guitar. I hope somebody can get something out of this transcription
P.S. Anybody with info, tabs, lyrics, etc... on Lillian Axe, drop me a
line. Or anybody who just wants to chat about the band (or any other great
rock band) your comments will always be welcome.
Denis Jacob
Anything on this great group will be appreciated!!!
Keep the rock rolling,
Chuck
