Just Right by Sim Redmond Band
First tab ever but I think I got decent enough sounding like the song.
Intro is short but should be spot on and repeats later.
This song is not that heavy on guitar but I thought it was really
pretty to play and sing so I tried to do this:
the bassline is contrasted heavily against the vocals the whole time,
so I just had the chords follow the base and it sounds pretty good on acoustic.
The G chords are more like transitions in between the main chords which go
F-Am7-F-C
You don't have to play them if you think it sounds better without, im on the fence
(Also D can be used as transition from the C back to the F)
If you want to try and mix it up or make the melody on guitar different,
the actual guitar on the song is picking D-C-A progression during the verses which
sounds cool with the band but is plain by itself so. I haven't really dug into
maybe finger picking the chords instead of strumming... maybe that would be cooler
but I'm not quite there yet
Good luck!

F G Am7
I fell asleep last night and began to dream
G F G C
of distant hills gentle valleys and rolling streams
F G Am7
on my arms there were wings that would take me there
G F G C
and my soul was so free I was light as air
F G Am7
So I flew to this far away paradise
G F G C
and I stayed til the coming of the morning light
F G Am7
and when I woke it was then that I realized
G F G C
the place in my dreams was laid out right before my eyes

In my heart is an ocean
