Verse 1
Am7		    G              F
Slide away - and give it all you've got
Am7		    G              F
My today - fell in from the top
Am7		    G	          F
I dream of you - and all the things you say
Am7		          G            F
I wonder where you are now? 

Am7                    G	                  F
Hold me down - all the world's asleep
Am7	                G		    F
I need you now - you've knocked me off my feet
Am7                   G		           F
I dream of you - we talk of growing old
Am7			         G	           F
But you said please don't ! 

Here I use two chords that I know are chords but are not in any chord dictionaries.
G?	(xx4033)
F?	(xx0022)

Bridge
G?	 F?           G?	           F?
Slide in baby - together we'll fly
G?         F?	     G		         E		
I've tried praying – but I don’t know what you’re saying to me 

Chorus

Another obscure chord here:
Fmaj?	(xx3230)

(E from bridge continues to C)
                 C
Now that you're mine
             G
We'll find a way
             Fmaj?        
Of chasing the sun
              Am7
Let me be the one
 	    G
That shines with you
       D7                                  F?
In the morning when you don't know what to do
         C
Two of a kind
             G
We'll find a way
                 Fmaj?
To do what we've done 
	 Am7                   G
Let me be the one that shines with you
           F?     D7
And we can slide away. 
F?     D7	F?     D7	 G      E
Slide away	Slide away	Awaaaaaaaay

After each ‘slide away’ Gtr 2 plays:
b----------------------|
g---7b---7---5---------|
d-----------------7----|

Solo.    This solo begins with 4 short licks before a longer solo part at the end.

Lick 1
e------------5----------------------------------|
b---------------5-------------------------------|
g---7b------------7---5----5h7---5--------------|
d---------------------------------------5h7-----|

Lick 2
e------------8---8h10p8---------------------|
b---8h10------------------10---8---8h10-----|
g-------------------------------------------|

Lick 3
b--------------------------------------------|
g---7b8---br7---5---5h7---5------------------|
d--------------------------------5h7---------|

Solo part2
b-----------------------------------------------------------|
g---19----19b---17------------------------17---19-17---19b--|
d-----------------------19----------17h19-------------------|
a----------------------------17h19--------------------------|

g---19b--19b--17-----------------------------------------------------------------|
d------------------------19-----------17h19--17----------------------------------|
a-----------------------------17h19----------------19---17-----------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------------------20---17---15h17--|

Repeat the first half of verse 1 then repeat bridge and chorus.

Again after each ‘slide away’ play:
b----------------------|
g---7b---7---5---------|
d------------------7---|

Play this on Gtr2 after each ‘slide away’ until 4:34 when you play:
b--------------------------|
g----------------5---7-5---|
d----------5h7-------------|
a---5h7--------------------|

Now swap between the two and adlib in extra notes.
If you do this well and in time it sounds and feels like playing a third gtr part with Noel and Bonehead. That’s how I do it anyway.

That’s the end of the song. This is the second song from the album that I have tabbed and I will certainly do more. 
Enjoy.
