Vanessa Carlton - 'A Thousand Miles'
from the album 'Be Not Nobody'
Tabulature-version from the 7th of October 2003, transcribed and tabbed by 
Thomas Mitterfellner

Since I think the other versions of this song I found on the net (on The Tabcrawler 
the one done by Luke Seymour) are not too helpful I hereby attempt to 
provide a more accurate yet playable transcription for guitar. I also made 
up some chords you can strum to accompany the singing if you don't want to 
fingerpick. Those are constructed from the very rich choice of notes you 
can hear being played on the record by different instruments like strings, 
bass, piano and voice. So they're not always simple chords but sometimes I 
tried to incorporate parts of the bassline or the vocal line (like the 
strange sounding Bmaj7sus4/E that resolves into a more familiar sounding 
F#sus4; see chorus).
If you have any comments, suggestions, corrections you want me to know 
about please write to:
