Tuning: Standard

I highly recommend the tab by McAvro for this song.  However,
as this song is in the key of D, I don't believe a capo makes
the song any easier to play, and I doubt I'm the only one who
finds it somewhat annoying to retune my guitar for a capo.
Also, for whatever reason, I'm particularly fond of open
strings.  The only caution I have for playing it this way is
that the second note of the song is clearly an F# and not an A,
though F# doesn't fit my picking pattern too well (or
fingerpicking pattern. I'm not sure how to aurally distinguish
the two).

The good news is the song follows the same pattern for the verse
except for a few nuances thrown in at measures 3 and 8, which I'm
sure you can figure out (or throw in your own spontaneous nuances,
like the pros).


Note: This is my first tab, and I put this all together today.
Plus, I'm not a great guitarist (heck, I can barely play this song),
so I wouldn't be surprised if I made some fatal flaw along the way.

Please give me your feedback.  I hope you find it helpful.
