Sugar Ray : Even Though
E|E|E|----------------------------

E|----------------------------------

E|------------||----| 

This is a nice, short and really 
sweet song, with pretty easy chord
progressions.
I first heard it in a concert in 
Melbourne(they were touring with
Live),
and that pretty much generated my 
interest in this song. It's in the
4:59
album, and it sounds pretty 
retro(70's-ish). From what I hear 
from the
song,
there's a rhythm & bass guitar 
playing together(duh), but I've 
arranged
it
so that it can be played on one 
guitar. Not too willing to fork out
cash for
the sheet music, I tabbed this on my
 own, since I couldn't find any
tabs for
this song. Oh yeah, and I wrote this
 using notepad, so if the text
formatting
is off, use notepad to open this.
To be honest, I figured this song 
out in an hour or so, there's bound
to
be mistakes. Anyway,here it is :

Note: The CD track is tuned down one
 step.

Chords used in this song(I think 
these are the correct chord names):

Bb  - X=1=3=3=3=1/6=8=8=7=6=6
C7  - X=3=5=5=5=3/8=10=10=9=8=8
E   - 0=2=2=1=0=0
F#  - 2=4=4=3=2=2
Gm7 - 3=5=5=3=3=3
A   - X=0=2=2=2=0/5=7=7=6=5=5

 chords for the Dm(noted above) to
play
the intro, it doesn't really make a 
difference, since they're the same
notes.

Well that's basically it, there's a 
couple of other minor leads in the
song
(and maybe even a few missed chords 
here and there) but I'll leave that
to
you to figure it out. Any comments 
mail to me at

"Sometimes we look so hard for 
miracles,
We never see how close they are,
Whatever we do, God has his own 
plans for us.
There's no point in worrying the 
future,
For we cannot control our destiny 
sometimes,
What's meant to be will happen.
I know where you are coming from,
but let us continue to seek,
and if that is the way, then we will
 find,
if we continue to knock, the doors 
will be opened."
