even listen to the damn song to figure out the tabs.. Oh well, here's the real tabs.

**1/2 Step Down (Flat) Tuning**

**Verse 1- Listen to the song to figure out the strumming pattern.

"Tonight under the lights we stroll and we're never
coming back and I swear I'll never let you go
if you come away with me.."
