Hi, this is my firt real tab so you have to be understanding.
Ofc, the hardest part to translate was solo. I decided that
the start in the position I of Am Pentatonic sounds best.
Also it was hard to write how to make Flick's bends in some
places so listen to get it right. GL:


VERSE I
          AmAnd (x02210@1)now I don't know why
            FShe (133211@1)wouldn't say goodbye
           DmBut (xx0231@1)then it seems that I
          EHad (022100@1)seen it in her eyes

etc.


CHORUS

AmSo (x02210@1)if she's somewhere near me
FI (133211@1)hope to God she hears me
DmThere's (xx0231@1)no one else could ever
EMake (022100@1)me feel I'm so alive

etc.


VIOLIN PART I:
(I also translate this part in case someone wants to play it too)

So now I don't know why
She wouldn't say goodbye
It just might be that I
Had seen it in her eyes
And now it seems that I
Gave up my ghost of pride
I'll never say goodbye
