Another tune I couldn't find on here, so have subbed how I play it, the Drun is just a D chord played slowly down then back up, play with it yourself, see what feels and sounds right for you. I have probably made a pile of mistakes on this one, but if it prompts someone else to submit a better version, everyone wins. As always any mistukes, feck ups or otherwise are mine, if you like it, go on, go mad RATE IT ! - flatwound - THE ISLAND ** CAPO 3rd FRET** D A D A D A D A

I wanna take you to the is^Gland and trace your foo^Atprints in the s^Dand^A ^D And in the evening when the s^Aun goes down We'll make l^Gove to the so^Aund of the oc^Dean ^D
