I know the tab part is not 100%, but sounds pretty ok'ish,
think of it as a base to start on, or to leave out.
As always, any mistakes are mine, if you spot some, let me
know and I'll sort it out.
And don't forget to stick your CAPO on the SECOND FRET
This is an easy version, when you feel like steping up,
grab your slide and head to:

English translation
How far am I from the land where I was born
Immense nostalgia invades my thoughts
And seeing myself so alone and sad, Like a leaf in the wind
I want to cry, I want to die, Of grief
Oh! Land of the sun, I sigh to see you so far away
Now, So far away, I live without light, Without love
C/B = X20010
And if you, like this, use this, copy this, hate this,
take time to ** RATE THIS **
Thanks, flatwound
