Tuning: Standard
CAPO ON 3rd- Tabs relative to capo.
MAIN GUITAR PATTERN: Might seem a bit hard to play at first, but I think
once you get the hang of playing the G on the E string in time, it starts
to flow quite nicely. I struggled for a few minutes to begin with. I
usually play with a pick, but for this song I think the pattern
complements finger picking slightly more, using the thumb to reach the
2 bottom strings.
play twice:

CHORUS:
Cwith bright Gsmiles and dFark eyes G
Cbright smiGle darkF eyes G
Ceverywhere IG went ohF
GI was always searching for you
Cbright smilGe dark Feyes G
*The main melody can neearly be played on top of the chorus.. I think
there's a bit of a tweak to it at the start line with the F, although
I haven't noted it down because it's fairly hard to tab it exactly
right. Maybe try it by ear.. Either way I think it sounds good enough
in chords.
BRIDGE:
Amman is only Ghalf hCimself
Fthe other half is a Gbright thing
Amhe tumbles oGn by luck or Cgrace
Ffor man is ever a Gblind thing
