Version 1
            SONG:   WHO YOU THOUGHT I WAS
ARTIST: BRANDY CLARK
TAB BY: DON CZARSKI
EMAIL:  


NOTE: When I play this song I play the G and Cadd9 chords this 
      way. If you want to you can play just a regular G and C 
      chord as well. The sound you hear played throughout the 
      song especially the Intro is based on the picking pattern. 
      I have tried to show that below this tab. Please look 
      there if you need help with that.

===================== *** PICKING PATTERN *** =====================

NOTE: Someone asked me how to get the sound Brandy Clark is getting
      in the INTRO and other places in the song. It is not easy for 
      me to show this since I mainly just play it naturally 
      without actually thinking how I do play it. When I slow it down 
      to see my fingers it throws me off some. But to try and help 
      those out that need it here is my attempt to show it. If someone 
      can show this better please just email me, message me here or 
      Leave a comment. DO NOT submit it as a correction.
