The tabs I submit are ones I've figured out on an acoustic guitar, as that's all
that I play. I think this sounds great acoustic, and since it is a softer song,
might be the most appropriate way. For the F chord, you could use either
1-3-3-2-1-1 or x-x-3-2-1-0. I alternate with both, as sometimes one feels more
comfortable to transition into than the other. Get lost in it and do what feels
right. Enjoy.

Intro - C for 4 bars (playing with the high e string held down on the 3rd fret
doesn't sound bad for this part)
CIf daddy says the Gmountains come off, yFou must believe him Ctrue
CI will build a sAmcience, and cFreate a world for Gyou
AmI'll protect you fFrom yourself, and tGendencies you've Cshown
