Hey there all you travis fans,i have been waiting fort someone to tab this 
song ever since
i got the album, but it was taking ages so i decided to do it myself and here 
it is. This
is one of the first songs i have typed up and is all my own work.It is 
probably one of my 
favourite songs on the album alongside sing and side.There isn't much to this 
song, 
except for the strumming in the intro and outro which can be a little tricky 
if you are a 
beginner.Just keep practising it and listening to the song to be able to play 
the upstrokes 
and downstrokes at the right time.To make it a little easier for you i have 
included how you 
should play the intro, with the correct strokes to make it sound wicked. The 
key to playing 
this song successfully is to strum the chords lightly to reproduce the mellow 
and relaxed 
ambiance of the song. If you have any corrections, improvements or any 
suggestions please
send them to this address- Mogk57@aol.com. thanx and enjoy!!!!
