I haven´t been able to find this tab anywhere on the internet.
I guess nobody is stupid (or autistic) enough to try and make it out note for note
(especially the ending). But here it is anyway :-)
The ending is really only the same two chords, but the bass is heavily
syncopated and needs some rehearsing!
Enjoy!

SUNNY SKIES (James Taylor, 1970)?
Capo 3rd fret for original key of C
Bass: E, F#, A xx212x / Bass: E, F#, B xx020x
Sunny skies sleeps in the morning.
He doesn't know when to rise.
He closes his weary eyes upon
the day, look at him yawning,
throwing his morning hours
away He knows how to ease down
slowly Everything is fine in the end
And you will be pleased to
know that Sunny Skies hasn't a friend.
Sunny skies weeps in the ev'nin'.
It doesn't much matter why
I guess he just has to cry from time to
time Everyone's leavin'
and Sunny skies has to stay
behind Still he knows how to ease down
slowly Everything is fine in the
end. And you will be pleased to
know that Sunny Skies hasn't a friend.
Sunny skies sleeps in the morning.
He doesn't know when to rise
He closes his weary eyes upon the
day and throws it all (tab) away.

1) Looking at the snow and trees that grow outside my win-dow.
2) Looking at the things that pass me by.
3) Wondering if where I've been is worth the things I've been through?
