PEACE TRAIN, EASY VERSION - CAT STEVENS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Peetie
This is my first tab.
I Studied the way Cat/Yusuf presses the tabs and it looks like he does it like this:
1. Index
2. Middle Finger
3. Ring Finger
4. Pinky Finger
F C G Am
E |----|-|-|-|----|-|-4-|----|-|-4-|------|-|-|-|-------------------------|
B |----1-|-|-|----1-|-|-|----1-|-|-|------1-|-|-|-------------------------|
G |----|-2-|-|----|-|-|-|----|-|-|-|------|-3-|-|-------------------------|
D |----|-|-4-|----|-2-|-|----|-|-|-|------|-2-|-|-------------------------|
A |----|-|-3-|----|-|-3-|----|-2-|-|------|-|-|-|-------------------------|
E |----|-|-|-|----|-|-|-|----|-|-3-|------|-|-|-|-------------------------|
So I set up the tabs accordingly. It may not be a precise "G" or "C" etc,
but this is the code I used in the tab to simplify. It sounds pretty good.
