Travelling Song - Pentangle

Based off collection "The Time Has Come (1967 - 1973)
Live version on Youtube is a half-step down, I believe

Some notes:

- For the "die da de da" section, you should take the chords liberally. In the recorded 
version you can hear only two strings for every chord (I suggest you do the same).

- I'm not going to tab out the solo, it's more fun to improvise on an acoustic. It's in 
the key of C/Am, so concentrate on that. I also suggest using the mixolodyian scale over C.

- The F can be subbed for a Dm/Fsus2 (100230)

- As for the tab, I'm only tabbing the segmented patterns, not the whole damn thing.
