Youve Got a Friend Guitar Tablature
BAND:        James Taylor
SONG:        You've Got A Friend
TABBED BY:   el sancco ([email protected])

WOW!  This tab took me a very very long time
to type up, but i made sure it was detailed.
I spent all night tabbing out this specific 
song.  I think the result is quite an accurate
one though!  I didn't put the lyrics into this
song because a lot of the song is based around 
the gutair.  Anyway, 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!
