I've attached the tab to Dayna Manning's album entitled "Volume 1". I
don't know if you've heard much about her in the U.S. yet but this album
has some excellent songs (sort of a folk/rock genre) that are great to play
guitar with.

Intro:
|G |C |G |C | x2
Verse:
G C G C
All the empty packs of cigarettes still lie on the floor
G C
Makes me think of all my past regrets
G C
Things I thought I'd learned before
G C G C
But the things that I regret most in life are things I did not do
G C G C
Like how I wish I gave you a kiss before I last left you
D F D F
Why do I do this, why do I do that, why do I still miss
Chorus:

Being at your house, in your room, in your mind

When I'm laughing at myself for thinking this way

When we're laughing about technology in the 90s I'll be scared
D F D F
Why do I do this, why do I do that, why do I still miss
Chorus:

I am still running away from your kind in my mind
Chorus:

Baby you know you're the kind I try to find to unwind
C
To tell what's on my mind
Am Fmaj7 G Am
You're my kind, you're the kind ... that messes with my mind
Notes:
It doesn't really matter how you play the chords, but I think that
the intro is played like this:

6. "Hippie Song"
------------------------------------------------------------------
I won't transcribe all of this song because it's very straightforward.
The song basically repeats the following chord progression over and
over again:
|G Bb |C D2 |
I barre the chords, but you can play them however you want:
G Bb C D2
E+-3-----6------8------5----|
B+-3-----6------8------5----|
G+-4-----7------9------7----|
D+-5-----8------10-----7----|
A+-5-----8------10-----5----|
E+-3-----6------8------x----|
The general pattern goes something like this:
G Bb C D2
E+-----------------------------|-----------------------------------|
B+-----3---------------6-------|-----------8----------5-----5------|
G+-----4---------------7-------|-----------9----7-7-7-7-7---7---7--|
D+-5---5---5-5-5s8-8---8---8-8-|-8s10-10---10---7-7-7-7-7---7---7--|
A+-5---5---5-5-5s8-8---8---8-8-|-8s10-10---10---5-5-5---5-------5--|
E+-3-------3-3-3s6-6-------6-6-|-6s8--8----------------------------|
1 2 & a 3 e & 4 & a 1 e & 2 & a 3 e & 4 &
There are two short breaks in the song (when the lyrics are "Listen
to me..." and "Take it from me...") with the following chords:
|G |Bb |C |
followed by a two beat tacet, then back into the verse chords.

Today there's a heaven tomorrow there's not
Em B7 C B7
Five, six and seven are tied in a knot
Em B7 C D G Em C B7
You stepped in the web and now you're caught ...
Em B7 C B7
I meant to meet you in that small green room
Em B7 C B7
With three chairs and a table three forks and a spoon
Em B7 C D G Em C D
Someday I'll take you for a walk on the moon ... for a walk on the
G Em C D G Em C B7 Em
moon ... for a walk on the moon ... for a walk on the moon
C B7 Em
Don't tell me who will stay or who will walk away
C B7 Em
Don't tell me who to love I'll love you anyway
C B7 Em
I'll live my life
C B7 Em
the way I want day by day
Em B7 C B7
You have the power to stop the time
Em B7 C B7
I fell down the hill in my nursery rhyme
Em B7 C D G Em C B7
You have your wisdom and I've learned mine ...
Em B7 C B7
It is a symbol the man's dress tie
Em B7 C B7
A symbol of manhood in the dreams we pass by
Em B7 C D G Em C D
I cannot stare you right in the eye ... right in the
G Em C D G Em C B7 Em
eye ... right in the eye ... right in the eye
C B7 Em
Don't tell me who will stay or who will walk away
C B7 Em
Don't tell me who to love I'll love you anyway
C B7 Em
I'll live my life
C B7 Em
the way I want day by day
|Em B7 |C B7 |Em B7 |C B7|
La la la...
Em B7 C D G Em C D
And someday I'll take you for a walk on the moon ... for a walk on the
G Em C D G Em C B7 Em
moon ... for a walk on the moon ... for a walk on the moon

I'll just give an outline for this song since it's quite repetitive.
Verse: |E A2 |
(repeat over and over)
Break I: |C |D |
(play under the lyrics "But I ..." and "Cause I ...")
Break II: |C |D |C |
(play under the lyrics "He's a monster that brings me flowers ...")
Here's an approximation of the opening guitar part:

9. "I Want"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Use standard chord formations (D, Am, G, C).
This song also repeats the same chord progression over and over.
Each verse consists of |D Am |C G | played 4 times. After 4
verses there is a break, played once through with guitar and then
again with just the bass. The break is just the verse chords stretched
out to a full bar each: |D |Am |C |G |.

The guitar rests the second time through the break. The verse
resumes after the break, but the guitar picking only resumes
the second time through the verse chord pattern on the second
beat of the second bar.
For the third verse after the break, the guitar picking is simplified.

11. "Coincidence?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This isn't the best guitar song so I didn't put too much effort
into transcribing this one.

Verse: |G |Bb F2 |G | (the first bar has only 2 beats instead of 4)
Chorus: |Bb F |G |
12. "A Simple Plan"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Chords:

E+--0-----0-----1-----3-----3---|
B+--1-----1-----1-----3-----3---|
G+--2-----0-----2-----4-----0---|
D+--2-----2-----3-----5-----0---|

E+--x-----x-----1-----3-----x---|
Verse:
Am C F
I have a simple plan about a woman and a man
Am
For you to hear
Am C F
They are holding hands, picture it if you can
Am G F G
My dear
Am C F
Don't want to cause you any trouble just wondering if you'd be able
Am
To be the one
Am C F
You could set the table and hook up the cable
Am G F G
While I have your son
Chorus:
C G/B Am
Wouldn't that be wonderful
C G/B Am
Yes it'd be wonderful
F G Am C F Am
To be your wife, the biggest part of your whole life
Verse:
Am C F
Once in awhile comes someone who'll make you smile
Am
For no reason at all
Am C F
For you I'd walk the mile, meet you at the end of the aisle
Am G F G
So please give me a call
Chorus:
C G/B Am
Wouldn't that be wonderful
C G/B Am
Yes it'd be wonderful
F G Am Am G
To have you here, to have you there and everywhere
C G/B Am
Now wouldn't that be wonderful
C G/B Am
Yes it'd be wonderful
F G Am
To be your wife, the biggest part of your whole life
Notes:
This song is very straightforward. Mute all the chords, and
note that the Am after the F in the verse always comes in a half
beat early. Also, between the two bars of Am in the verse, pull
your fingers off and then hammer back on like this:
Am C F Am Am
E+------------------------------------------------|
B+-----------1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--0--1------|
G+-----------2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--0--2------|
D+-----------3--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--0--2------|
A+-----------3--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0------|
E+-----------1------------------------------------|
4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1
Finally, when between the G and F barre chords, lift your pointer
finger to play the low E just before changing chords, like this:
G F G
E+--3------3-----1------1-----3----|
B+--3------3-----1------1-----3----|
G+--4------4-----2------2-----4----|
D+--5------5-----3------3-----5----|
A+--5------5-----3------3-----5----|
E+--3------3--0--1------1--0--3----|
... 4 & 1 ... 4 & 1
That's it. Have fun, this is a great CD to play along with. You can
