Sullivan Street   by Counting Crows
                  from August and Everything After
                  Words:  Adam Duritz
                  Music:  Adam Duritz & David Bryson
This is a very simple song to play involving a few easy chords with
alternating bass strings played.  The effectiveness comes from the haunting,
soulful vocals.
These are the two main chords that make up the song (actually, the main riff)
e|--2--2--2-------2-------|
B|--3--3--3-------3-------|
G|--2--2--2-------0-------|
D|--0-----0-------0-------|
A|--------0---0---x-------|
E|----------------3-------|
Strum those in rhythm, and it should sound right.
Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
For the bridge, just arpeggiate them.
The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think.
