This song is actually picked in a particular pattern - and after listening to the song
for ages, and pulling up the submitted tabs (all of which I can see apart from the
Guitar Pro version) they fell short in giving a true rendition of the song as it's
played on the record.
So here goes what I've sorted after spending some time parsing it out by ear, and broken
into sections which I'll label against the verses below:
Intro:
Pt.1 & 2 played in succession twice...

My first post after many years of using these tabs...so hopefully I'll make some
time to add my own contributions to the community. Thank you for the comments.
Please let me know how you liked it.
Well I'd like to Edit this if I can, but not sure how...
Just noticed that the end of pt 1&2 where a 1 (F) is shown on the 1st string, it should be a 3 (G). Also toward the end of pt 3 - just before the D chord is played, the same issue occurred.
My apologies!
