We have an official Angela tab made by UG professional guitarists.

Kudos to satir3 for nailing the chord progression and laurahoehner for getting the basic fingerpicking
pattern, I just wanted to merge the two into a proper tab and tweak some things in the fingerpicking that I
hear differently. Might not be 100% spot on, but it's about as close as I can get. Enjoy!
 
Note: the lyrics aren't in time with the tablature, but it's the best I could do with formatting. Figured
it'd be better to have the lyrics right by the tab. Super easy rhythm though, nothing special.

Thanks for this tab! For people like me it's hard to get everything I need just from listening to the song and looking at a chord progression.
