I was able to tab this from listening to the Dave matthews listener supported cd....so to get your strumming down correctly....make sure you listen to the song....it is a great song.....and sounds great when played right....also...it is pretty easy! I know this is the correct tab....not sure if I got all the lyrics completely correct....but they are close...so enjoy....and let me know what you think of the tab....this is one of my favorite songs by Dave....and my first tab to submit for this site!
