Croce Jim - Time In A Bottle (accurate) Chords & Tabs

song: time in a bottle 
artist: Jim Croce
tabbed by:Joshua A. Abella (Josh_TGP5@yahoo.com)

this tab is 100 percent accurate. i studied the song when i was in high school, but i 
forgot how to play it for 5 years 'cos i lost my tab... at last, after long hours of 
fiddling and doses of caffeine, here it is! i dedicate this song to my dad who kept 
on insisting that i find another tablature of this Jim croce classic after i played 
him the intro... i disobeyed him and let my worn-out mind and fingers do the studying...
and also to baby shane, anak ng cuz ko...hope he'll learn how to play the guitar when he 
grows up...
