Hey there all you travis fans,i have been waiting fort someone to tab this
song ever since
i got the album, but it was taking ages so i decided to do it myself and here
it is. This
is one of the first songs i have typed up and is all my own work.It is
probably one of my
favourite songs on the album alongside sing and side.There isn't much to this
song,
except for the strumming in the intro and outro which can be a little tricky
if you are a
beginner.Just keep practising it and listening to the song to be able to play
the upstrokes
and downstrokes at the right time.To make it a little easier for you i have
included how you
should play the intro, with the correct strokes to make it sound wicked. The
key to playing
this song successfully is to strum the chords lightly to reproduce the mellow
and relaxed
ambiance of the song. If you have any corrections, improvements or any
suggestions please
send them to this address- [email protected]. thanx and enjoy!!!!
