WOW!  This tab took me a very very long time
to type up, because of my attention to detail
on this specific song.  I think the result is
quite accurate though!  I hope this tab helps
you play this beautiful song, however, if you
wish to use this tab on a site or claim credit 
for it, please inform me before hand.  Thanks!

  Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
A              E                     Gmaj7
  Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
A                      G/E         D
  I walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song
A                 E              Gmaj7
  I just can't remember who to send it to
