my first tab,,
all the picking parts should be done fairly swiftly, and the chords should relate
to the rhythm of the song
a really pretty song may i add!
just fair warning that it's not exact,
do let me know if there's some notes that don't sound right or i screwed up somewhere,
enjoy:)

Intro

~ = hold a little longer, not too much

   Am (x02210@1)                        F (133211@1)                         GE--0~-----0-------0---------|--1~------1--------1--------|-3~-------3-------3----------| (320003@1)B--1~---1---1---1---1---1---|--1~--1----1---1----1---1---|-0~---0----0---0---0---0-----|

   EE--0~------------| (022100@1)B--0~---0---0----|

D--2~-----2---2--| might wanna check out the song for the rhythm
A--2~------------|
E--0~------------|

Am (x02210@1)F (133211@1)G (320003@1)Ex (022100@1)1
(that high pitched voice in the background goes with this if you listen closely,
yes i had too much time on my hands)

Am (x02210@1)                        F (133211@1)   i'm not ready for this,   though i thought i would be
G (320003@1)                        E (022100@1)  i can't see the future,    though i thought i could see
Am (x02210@1)                            F (133211@1)   i don't want to leave you,    even though i have to
G (320003@1)                          E (022100@1)  i don't want to love you,    oh how(?) i still do

Am (x02210@1)                               F (133211@1)   need some time to find myself,   i wanna live within(?)

G E x 1 (then that little riff that goes with E)

E----------|
B-0---0----|
G--1---1---|   x2
D---2---2--|
A----------|
E----------|

(start strumming these chords more strongly, some strums being more distinct then others,
again i'd check out the song for the rhythm)

Am (x02210@1)                    F (133211@1)  can I go my own way?   can I pray my own way?
G (320003@1)                          E (022100@1) i don't want to leave you,   oh i need you

(stop strumming so hard here, do it gently like previously)

Am (x02210@1)                     F (133211@1)  am I ready for this?    did I think I would be?
G (320003@1)                      E (022100@1) can I see the future?    no i can't see
Am (x02210@1)                          F (133211@1)  i don't want to leave you,   even though I have to
G (320003@1)                           E (022100@1)  i don't want to love you,    oh how(?) i still do

(you can keep doing the chords Am F G E here, but i like to do a faint picking thing of 
riffs from the intro)

ah la da da da da..
oh how i still do

ah la da da da da..
oh how i still do

(fade out and go on to a quiet outro thing that i really just made up to make it sound final..)
E------|     |E------|     |E------|
B------|     |B------|     |B------|
G------| x8  |G------| x8  |G------| x8
