This tab is for a girl I saw on the Northern Line, London
Underground on June 22nd 2002, with her mum been shopping
around 7pm. Before I could get a chance to talk to her, I
realised I was on the wrong f ing train. I didn't even
catch her name!!! Neways, enough of my tales of love and
loss. This is my 1st tab, and this is one of my fav songs
on Michelle Branch's album. If there any mistakes, give
me a break, I'm only 16!!!
If you do have any enquires feel free to e-mail me at
froilan@legaspi.fsnet.co.uk
Plz, no stalkers!!!
