Song: Far Away
Artist: José González
Tabbed by: Dingle
This is much much closer than the tabs that are currently out there.
It may sound off initially but I think it's technically closer to the real thing.
He throws in some high e's throughout that aren't noted. I will update with any corrections.
I based most of this tab off this video: youtube.com/watch'v=p0EAwT1tpn8
Tune to B-A-D-A-B-e
Before you begin, practice this over and over.
(0) means it's played softly or not at all. Jose plays it to maintain rhythm.

Bridge- A little tricker but still similar but requires a little more ad-libbing

Outro- This is just a general idea. He alternates often and even plays part of the bridge again.
Use your weak pinky and middle finger to hit bottom notes.
