Something In The Way She Moves
by James Taylor

tabbed by Jeff Lo (loj@iia.org)

This particular version of the song is from the James Taylor In Concert
video from PBS.  Some of the fills are a bit different from the Greatest
Hits version and the capo is on the fourth fret instead of the third.
I'm fairly confident about its accuracy but, as always, corrections
and comments are more than welcome.

capo on fourth fret

h  = hammer
p  = pulloff
/  = slide up
\  = slide down
