Great tab. Thank you!

It took almost eighteen months practicing Paul's fingerpicking in several songs. Thnx for tabs of man's magic fingers.

I tried playing it again like you sugested. The chords are correct.I'm just stuck with the style you're suggesting.To be honest I'm not even close to what you would call a aclomplished player.But I mostly use alternating bass in my fingerpicking style.
just never seemed to be able to get in the rythm.Sorry that I offended you just want to be honest.
