hey, this is my tab of sailing man by royal republic. it may not be 100% accurate, but
you get along pretty well.
if you have questions or other comments, feel free to write me: sven-wendt@hotmail.de.
or, if you don't mind, check out my cover of the song on 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_ghpgDiVng&feature=plcp.

the tab is -1 step, just because some royal republic songs need this tuning. you can
also play it in standard tuning, just 1 step lower.
