Hi, this is my first tab. I mean chords.
There were two versions of this song, but they were both off,
and not so pretty to read,
so i figured out that i could upload mine chords.
If you have any suggestions or complains,
feel free to e-mail me at: mladjabask@yahoo.com 

Note:
If played on acoustic or classical guitar,
you can slow it down and it will sound pretty much nice.
you can even fingerpick through these chords, its fun.
If played on electric guitar,
than i advise you to see some tabs, cuz they sound much nicer.

Enjoy. =)
