COMMENT:------------------------------------
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!
[Verse 1]
