Wishing I Was There - Natalie Imbruglia
Tabbed: rkosheluk@earthlink.net
This is tabbed at CAPO 1 to give it a deeper feeling and ease of playing
 without having to tune-down your guitar.  Previous versions were good but
 missed the D/add9 in the progression and the ending chorus of the
 "Wishing I" 's.  Hope this works for you.
