The Zephyr Song Guitar Tablature
This is based on the other zephyr tabs, but i just transcribed it to use the top three
strings, for easyer playing! (especially, if you guitar isn't top notch, and the strings 
have some distance from the fretboard) (and easier on most acoustic guitars)

I also included chordnames, so handpositioning is logical.

For correct strumming on chorus and such, its easy to hear on the track. 
Else check out the other tabs.
I only made this tab for the fingerpicking to be easier. (and sound exactly the same)

Original tab and earwork made by Flip ([email protected]).. Hope you don't mind me doing this

His website is: http://www.geocities.com/fliptabs

This is my version of his :o) (Gistybit)

Can I get your hand to write on?
Just a piece of leg to bite on
Do you want a night to fly my kite on?
Do you want to flash a light on?

Take a look it's on display... For you
Coming down, no not today

 [repeat over next lyrics]

Did you meet your fortuneteller?
Get it off with no propeller
Do it up it's on with Stella
Pickin' up but not too strong.. For you
Take a piece and pass it on


 Chorus:

D                     G           A
  Fly away on my zephyr   I feel it more that ever
D             
  And in this perfect weather
G              A
  We'll find a place a place together

 2nd Verse: Same as 1st Verse

Rebel and a liberator
Find a way to be a skater
Rev it up to levitate her
Super friendly aviator
Take a look it's on display... For you
Comin' down, no not today


 Chorus:


D                     G           A
  Fly away on my zephyr   I feel it more that ever
D             
  And in this perfect weather
G              A
  We'll find a place a place together


D
  In the water where I centre my emotion

G                    A  
   All the world can pass    me   by


D                     G           A
  Fly away on my zephyr   I feel it more that ever
G                 A
 We're  going  to live     forever


 Solo: (clean)
