First you need to know, this is not transcribe of original version. I made this tab because i like this song and i thought its a pity that Eric in acoustic version using mostly just three fingers instead four. This version using mostly higher position of IMA fingers and swiching PMA counter I. Thats the main idea. Some chords had to be extended too, because using one more string. I hope that someone like it. You can check it as cover at youtube.Was this info helpful?
