Song: Who's To Say...
Artist: Blanche
Album: If We Can't Trust the Doctors...
This is an excellent song by what I consider one of the greatest bands of today. I haven't
seen a good tab of this so I decided to make my own. This is my first tab.
Tuning: Standard

Chorus (it's easiest just to write out the lyrics and chords)
You say that by now
I should know you'll never love me
But who's to say that what has never
Been will never be
What has been will never be
Next is the solo which features Jack White playing a 12 string acoustic guitar over the
verse pattern. I can't hear exactly what he's doing so I usually just mess around with
chords.

I should know you'll never love me
But who's to say that what has never
Been will never be
What has been will never be
The Outro features another solo type thing over top of the pattern for the 1st verse. I
do what I did for the first solo.
