(SOCAN) Matthew Good This is a really sweet sounding song. It's all acoustic, with two guitar tracks, no drums or bass, and a capo on the second fret of both guitars. Here it is. (In 3/3 time) There is no intro, it goes straight into the first verse. Guitar one is all chords, so I'll tab them out here. -G --F#(?) - Emb7(?) - Am - ..C -3- - -3- - - -3- - - -0- - -0- -3- - -3- - - -3- - - -1- - -1- -0- - -0- - - -0- - - -2- - -0- -0- - -0- - - -2- - - -2- - -2- -2- - -x- - - -2- - - -0- - -3- -3- - -2- - - -0- - - --- - --- Verse 1 Guitar 1 |///|///|/--|/--|///|///|/--|/--| >x4 ....G ...F# .Em .......Am .C ..Em Guitar 2 After 2 repeats of what is written above, guitar 2 plays ------|------|------|------|----0-|-----0-|------|------\ ------|------|------|------|--0--0|--1p0-0|-=----|------ \ ----0-|----0-|----0-|------|---2--|-------|----0-|------ ..\ ---0--|---0--|---2--|------|------|-------|---2--|------ ../ x2 --2---|--0---|--2---|------|-2----|-3-----|--2---|------ / -3----|-2----|-0----|-0----|------|-------|-0----|-0----/ Chorus |///|///|///| \ -Am -C -Em --/ x2 Verse 2 Guitar 1 and 2 do the second half of the first verse.
