This is my first tab. I saw one other tab for this song that just didn't have the important aspects of this song. This was derived from a recording made by Nahko. Go on youtube and look up "Nahko Ashland OR" its the first to come up, check that out for reference, and please enjoy this beautiful song. Note that the F is not played open! The little riff is plated three times at every break and the introduction, strumming is nice and easy, check out the video to get the rhythm. Capo-3. All cords and tab relative to capo.
