The best-known recording of this song is the Art Garfunkel version; this tab is transcribed from a combination of the acoustic version Jimmy Webb recorded with Linda Ronstadt and the Five for Fighting version from the "Chicken Little" soundtrack. A couple things: 1. Watch out for the third verse -- the chords are slightly different than the first two. 2. YMMV, but I think the bridge sounds best using the following chord variations:
