This is an amazing song by some amazing artists but
before we start, this is my first tab so bare with me. I
enjoy finger picking most things so this is just the way
I play the song. If you find that strumming works better
for you than go for it, I'm no musical genius either so
I will place the chord names I find from the "Jguitar.com
Chord Namer" above the picking so you can have a better
visualization of the timing.

This is the entire song but I play it twice like this
as an intro before I start the vocals.
Also, because this is the only part to the song
I like to make some variation with the feel of the
guitar between the intro and verses. I will do my
best to display how I play the verses
as well as place the lyrics in the right place.
The * is an indication of where you slap the strings
to give it somewhat of a snare hit sound.

[Verse 1] How does it measure up? Was I good enough?
And if it's meant to be What will it mean to me
[Chorus] x2 Always Headstrong Calling Me home
[Verse 2] And as I fill my cup Wonder how I had enough
What will be will be Not without some mystery

I may never know.
I never want to know.
There was a place I belonged.
and I'm not sure.
of that, I'm sure.

There you have it, I probably made it harder than I should
have but the thing that will make a big difference
is actually listening to the song and playing along just to
get the feel that YOU want with everything.
Anyway, thanks and I hope you find this to be useful.
