Always Gold Chords & Tabs
This is my attempt to make a tab based on Ben Cooper's tutorial in this video:
http://youtu.be/9FbCMqenXKQ
I'm not a great guitarist and I haven't made many tabs but I find them easier to
follow than a video. I hope this is helpful.
Chords used during the strummed sections:

[Chorus]
Am EmAddC* Em
...there when you were restless
F/C* Csus4* C G*
left in the dead of night
Am EmAddC* Em
And I was there when three months later
F/C* Csus4* G*
you were standing in the door all beaten and tired
And I stepped aside.
