http://www.aballadeer.com/
artist: A Balladeer
song: swim with Sam
the song is originally on piano but I just liked it so much that I just did a simple
for the guitar.
nothing major just for the people who know a person named Sam like I do ;P
any comments or adjustments are welcome
*I updated the tab, added the solo and it should be correct now:)

intro: G — cadd9 — D
G
Sammy says he lost his call
cadd9 D
On the day Cousteau had died
G
The ocean was a tub of sharks
cadd9 D
With Jacques Yves as a guide
G
Sammy says the water's safe
cadd9 D
That man should not have left the seas
G
Called the Human Bathyscaphe
cadd9 D
He's King of Expertise
REFRAIN:
D5 cadd9
So if someone wants to know
D5 cadd9
And asks you where I am
cadd9 D5
You say you saw me go
G
For a swim with Sam
G
Sammy says they call him "nice"
cadd9 D
And that it makes him really sick
G
That his "nice" is like "polite"
cadd9 D
And silence does the trick
G
Sammy says he'd like to go
cadd9 D
Somewhere far away from here
G
To a sea that no one knows
cadd9 D
To completely disappear
REFRAIN:
D5 cadd9
So if someone wants to know
D5 cadd9
And asks you where I am
cadd9 D5
You say you saw me go
G
For a swim with Sam

in the bridge instead of the cadd9 you could try a C, just what suits you better
G G
Don't try to talk me out of this
cadd9 D
Not while I'm here in Carla's seat

"The sea has many drops of water
cadd9 D
But the salt won't let you taste the sweet"
