If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring, is livin' there I hear
Say for me that I'm all right though new things come and go
She might think that I've forgotten her but don't tell her it isn't so
We had a falling-out, like lovers often will
But to think of how she left that night, still gives me a chill
And though our separation, well it chilled me to the heart
She still lives on inside of me, we've never been apart
If you're making love to her, kiss her for the [Incomprehensible]
Who always has respected her for doing what she did
For I know it had to be that way, it was written in the cards
But the bitter taste still lingers on, it all came down so hard
Well, I meet a lot of people as I make the rounds
And I hear her name here and there as I go from town to town
And I've never gotten used to it, I've just learned to turn it off
Well, either I'm too sensitive or else I'm just gettin' soft
If you see her
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart 'cause they all went by so fast
If she's passin' back this way, I'm not that hard to find
Tell her, she can look me up if she's got the time
Tell her, she can look me up if she's got the time

version 2 



Tuning:D A D F# A D
Capo:no capo
 
Its played with a slide so you will need one if you don't have one. I play this with the slide on my index
finger.
 

Tuning: Open D
 
e - D
B - A
G - F#
D - D
A - A
E - D
 
CAPO: 2nd Fret
Tab notation relative to capo
 
 
Notation Legend:
 
~~ or ~ : Use slide and move your finger back and forth (or up and down) to rapidly vibrate to create sound
+~ : Smack your slide down on the fret and vibrate
~| : Use your slide but don't vibrate, just rest it on the fret
h : Hammer on
p : Pull off
B : bend
R : release
s : slide (between frets, using your finger slide)
* : strum for as long as necessary (listen to song to know how long)
 
You use the slide for most parts, the parts without a ~ above mean you play them with your fingers
 
Intro 

Main Riff:
 
In the tab I have simplified the main riff so that that tab isn't too confusing or messy. It looks like this:
 
D  |-0s12s5s0---|
A  |-0s12s5s0---|
F# |-0s12s5s0---|
D  |-0s12s5s0---|
A  |-0s12s5s0---|
D  |-0s12s5s0---|
 
If you cant work out how to play it exactly, here it is note for note, however its quite hard to portray
accurately. A / means you strum.

I haven't worked out the first intro yet.

If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring, is livin' there I hear
Say for me that I'm all right though new things come and go
She might think that I've forgotten her but don't tell her it isn't so
We had a falling-out, like lovers often will
But to think of how she left that night, still gives me a chill
And though our separation, well it chilled me to the heart
She still lives on inside of me, we've never been apart
If you're making love to her, kiss her for the [Incomprehensible]
Who always has respected her for doing what she did
For I know it had to be that way, it was written in the cards
But the bitter taste still lingers on, it all came down so hard
Well, I meet a lot of people as I make the rounds
And I hear her name here and there as I go from town to town
And I've never gotten used to it, I've just learned to turn it off
Well, either I'm too sensitive or else I'm just gettin' soft
If you see her
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart 'cause they all went by so fast
If she's passin' back this way, I'm not that hard to find
Tell her, she can look me up if she's got the time
Tell her, she can look me up if she's got the time
