this song is what brought me to this fantastic site!
i had been searching for weeks for a tab on this song ,
and finally one of my searches led me here , and i
found the version posted here by raymond graham . i
grabbed my guitar , and sat down in front of my cd
player , and tried to play along – but it just did not
sound quite right in a lot of raymond’s transcription .
so , this gave me the push i needed to get off my lazy
butt , and do a little figgerin’ out myself .
so – – –
this is a revision to the file posted by
raymond graham – raymond did all the hard work ,
typing this all out in the first place – i just
changed his chords to my version . this is my first
attempt at posting a song , so bear with me!

it opens with a slow strum down the Em chord –
omitting the high E string

please note : occasionally , the high G note
[ 3rd fret , first string ] is addEd to the Am chords
as they pick around the chords – you can hear them
clearly if you listen close . i didn’t include any
fingerpicking tablature , i think it’s better , anyway ,
rather than to play a certain ’’set’’ way , to just
pick out notes around the chords according to how
you feel the song!

altho its a lot of moving on the neck ,
i prefer playing it all on the B string –
i just like the sound better that way .
since i Am not familiar with proper tablature
notation , let me explain what i mean :
= slide down
/ = slide up
of course , since these notes aren’t played on
the guitar at all , you just play them how you
feel ’em! illustrated above is how i “feel”
’em .
