This tune strongly reminds me of Monkberry Moon Delight by Paul McCartney/RAM, which you
check out. They both are strongly suggestive of a song written or set in a dark attic
a rainstorm/slightly mad period of songwriting inspiration

Great job, thanks for the tab. I found it interesting that you compared this song with "Monkberry Moon Delight", because it reminds me a lot more of "Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey" (also from McCartney's "Ram" LP), or at least the "We're so sorry ..." verses -- that slow, dreamy, rainy day feeling. Just to be more clear about what baddabing said, it's the G# in the second to last "All I need is one" line that should be a G#m.

All perfect except for one little thing that I'm guessing is a typo. After the chorus with the first "all you need is one" part, it should be G#m. Other than that, like I said - PERFECT!
