Recently, this lovely song by The Magnetic Fields has stuck in my head, and I tried to play it on my acoustic guitar. But I couldn't find any proper tab, so I did my own version of the song. This is definitely not exact as how it was played, but sounds okay to me. By all means, I am far from a good guitar player, and this is my first tabbing, so... feel welcomed to variate yourself or correct my mistakes.
But after seeing this cover on youtube, I feel so ashamed to even post my tab, so i shall hide it...
