Born at the Right Time - Paul Simon
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Paul Simon
From: "The Rhythm of the Saints" (1989)
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
I used the “Original Acoustic Demo” (a bonus track on the 2011
remaster of the album) for this tab. This recording only features
Simon singing and strumming an acoustic guitar. But chords, rhythm
and key also fit to the regular studio version.
Want to know what this tab sounds like? Check out my recording here:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Different capo positions work well:
Acoustic demo Live versions
Capo: 3rd fret 5th fret
Play: D C (transpose this chord sheet -2)
Key: F F
If you don't have a capo at hand, transpose these chords here +3
to match the original key of F.

Whatever your strumming pattern may be, make sure to include the following
pattern:
