There is already a transcription of this Song at COWPIE, but it has many
wrong/missing chords. So I decided to do a exact transription.
"I'm Already Taken" By Steve Wariner
Written by Terry Ryan and Steve Wariner
To be found on the CD "TWO TEARDROPS"
Key in G - Standard Guitar Tuning
Transcribed by Bahram ( Bahram@garthworld.de )
This is the first time I am doing a tabulature transcription. I hope that I
haven't done anything wrong here and hope that you'll enjoy playing the song
as much as me.
Just do me a favor : If you ever play this song, then play it with the smooth
and soft feeling that it deserves. That's the reason why I spent more time on
transcribing this song, then on any other song before.
