Tabbed by:JOHN (CHS RULZ! GO IRISH)

Tuning: Standard

You pluck this song (dont use a pick)

The tab I wrote in version 1 wasn't exactly Right im sorry to say

Hope this one helps, it IS the correct way.

ignore how to pluck the chorus,intro,verse and ending in version 1

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)	


NOTE: THIS SONG SOUNDS BEST ON ACOUSTIC guitar
I have also put the finger positions above almost each line to help.

LYRICS
_______


If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.

And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.

If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away 

 This is the way I believe the song should be tabbed.  The picking pattern is
constant throughout most of the song:  strings 4, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2.  The
second time through the chorus, when you get to the end of the second line, jump
down to the ending.  The easiest way to play measures six and seven of the chorus
is to bar the entire 2nd fret and finger the third string, third fret for measure
six; then move your finger down to the second string, third fret for measure
seven.  If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, e-mail me at
lmeyerjr@sbcglobal.net.

 HEy everyone I Am 100% sure that the tabs below are exactly correct;
dont be intimidated by just the first line cuz there are instructions on how
to play almost each line and what position to put your fingers in. It's a 
pretty easy song just takes a while to learn.

NOTICE: MOST OF THIS SONG IS MADE UP OF BROKEN CHORDS and i put little 

drawings and
instructions of where to put your fingers and stuff
ALSO THIS SONG IS PLAYED BY FINGER-PICKING EACH NOTE IN A SLOW BUT STEADY 

RhYThm

THE PLUCKING PATTERN FOR THIS SONG IS EXACTLY AS FOLLOWs

1.pluck either the 6th or 5th string with ur thumb (which is the E that 

sounds really  mellow or the A string that sounds a little mellow as well) 

and then that is followed by plucking the G string (lol) with ur middle 

finger immediatley followed by the plucking of the B and E(the e that sounds 

really high pitched) strings with only ur index finger. U Do the part where u 

pluck the G, B, and, E strings twice. U'll
see thats the pattern in the tabulature

  
THE TUNNING for this song is standard



ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)

You will see that its easier to play the line above if you put your fingers
in the D chord position (which is showed below); then move onto the next line

EADGBE
   232      
    	
ALRIGHT once u've got that move onto the next line

E--------4----4--------------------------------------------------
B------5----5----------------------------------------------------
G----6----6------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E--4-------------------------------------------------------------

You'll see that its easier to put your fingers and play the tabs above in the 

C#M 
position for the line above (which is pictured below)

(BAR THE ENTIRE 4th Fret)

		EADGBE
		444444        
		   65	     
                  
(after you've got that then move to the next line)

E--------2-----2-------------------------------------------------
B------2-----2---------------------------------------------------
G----3-----3-----------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E--2-------------------------------------------------------------

You'll see that it is easier to put your fingers and play the tabs above in 

the
broken chord position which is pictured below

	    (BAR THE ENTIRE SECOND FRET)	
		EADGBE
		222222

E--------2----2--------------------------------------------------
B------3----3----------------------------------------------------
G----4----4------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E--2-------------------------------------------------------------

For this line you'll also see that its easier to put your fingers and play 

the tab
above in yet another broken chord position which is pictured below

			(Bar the ENTIRE 2nd fret)
			EADGBE
			222222
			   43         

Once you've got that then move onto the next line

E------------0---------------------------------------------------
B----------0---------Put your fingers in the e7 position and pluck
G--------1-----------each note individually with your thumb slowly and
D------0-------------gently
A----2-----------------------------------------------------------
E--0-------------------------------------------------------------

In case you forgot below is the e7 position

             EADGBE
	     020100       


THERE!!! THATS THE END OF THE CHORUS

OKAY NOW ALL THATS LEFT IS THE ENDING PART

			(ENDING PART)

			This part is very easy as well all u do is
			play the first 3 lines of the verse like the 

following:

E--------0-----0-------------------------------------------------
B------2-----2---------------------------------------------------
G----4-----4-----------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A--0-------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------

E--------0-----0-------------------------------------------------
B------0-----0---------------------------------------------------

E--4-------------------------------------------------------------

E--------0------0------------------------------------------------
B------0------0--------------------------------------------------
G----4------4----------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E--3-------------------------------------------------------------

But then after that all u do is play the following

E----------------------------------------------------------------
B----------------------------------------------------------------
G--1--------------Strum these gently with your thumb all together
D--2-------------------------------------------------------------
A--0-------------------------------------------------------------
E--0-------------------------------------------------------------

E--0-------------------------------------------------------------
B--2-------------------------------------------------------------
G--1---Strum this with your thumb immediately after the line above, but
D--2-----------------also strum it gently and slowly
A--0-------------------------------------------------------------
E--0-------------------------------------------------------------


The order of the song is self explanitory like The intro goes first then the
