F
Sweet thing,
 
The moon is high
 
And the night is young
          Bb
Come on and meet me,
 
In the backyard under the cotton wood tree
        C
It's a good thing,
     Bb
Am I wishin',
           F
Oh come on sweet thing,
 
Won't you climb on out of your window
                  Bb
While the world's sleeping
 
You know I need you and there's
                C
No way I'll be leavin
                         Bb
'Till we're kissin on the porch swing
             F
Oh my little sweet thing
 
 
Play intro again, only 3 times and then the last part of the intro
 
Again,no guitar during the verse by Keith, just the backup guitars making some noise
the intro and chords from chorus.  May be a synthesizer actually. With the banjo just
here and there.
 
Play chorus again.

C-------------| sorry can't figure out the rest of the solo, but I'll get on
G-------------| that.  just wanted to get this up first. end the solo with an
D-------------| F chord.
 
 
After solo, no guitar while Keith sings.
 
End with Intro again, but for last note play the opening chord.
 
 
Please if you have any other ideas, make changes and just reference my tab.  I also
this song could be done tuned half a step below instead of a full step, but I went with this
because I think it sounds better - could be because I'm playing an acoustic guitar.  The
would be E, A, and then Bm in that order.  You can figure out the notes, just
1 from them all.
