I’m Only Sleeping- The Beatles

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm almost 95% sure this is right. There are a couple of places where it may

be a little off but still pretty close. The timing is hard to duplicate in

tab so like any other song you're going to need to listen to it a couple of times

to get the feel.
