This is my version of this wonderfully gorgeous song since I don't like the 
version in the guitar book.  I think it's more accurate to what the artist 
is really playing, so tell me what YOU think.


Kathy's Song (as heard on "Greatest Hits")

Note:  At the end of the third line of each verse, there is a walkup from G 
to C that Paul Simon loves to do (Homeward Bound, Boxer, etc...) and he 
alternates from the single note walk I put in the tab at that spot and a 
more common (and cooler) walkup:

Kathy's Song

Words/Music by Paul Simon
Tablature by Frederik Esser

This tab is developed from the one by John Nimis. I don't claim it to be
better, but it's certainly a lot closer to the recorded version (on sound of
silence).
