Wow, thank you all for the lovely comments.
To answer the question,
No I didn't write it, it was written by Allan Taylor, a brilliant musician and songwriter.
There really isn't anything in the way of chords, it's just one and two strings but the guitar is in DADGAD tuning.
Although I've been playing for a long time I'm just learning how to read the tabs on this site, so I really don't how to explain how I play the tune, as soon as I do I'll be delighted to share it - unless you can tell me an easier way.
I think I could manage to use tabs to show you the finger positions but you'd have to sort out the beat/time yourself from the mp3 file.
Thanks again,
John

Jomi,
I tried this a couple of times with a dropped D and realized that it may have been in
DADGAD tuning. I have downloaded 3 versions of this tune. I passed this on to a friend who is heavy into the DADGAD music. Thank for your post. Again, it was excellant.
