Taking My Life Away

this song is relatively easy, but 
quite moving, especially on just an 
acoustic
guitar. I did this off of memory, 
but its pretty close to right...

I like to play my chord a little 
varied, so I'll just put the chord 
name, but
you'll see that I like to play open 
strings, whatever works for you.

Standard Tuning!!

But these thoughts won't go away
I hope I dream of you
Cause it's taking my life away

I hope I dream of you
Cause it's taking my life away
