This version of Swim To You is based on a live version of a livingroomconcert,
which you can find on YouTube.
The tuning is standard. 
For the G, I personally prefer to do some hammer-ons on the b-string.
I hope you like it, if you have any comments, 
feel free to leave them behind so that the tab can be improved :)
