My Manic and I Laura Marling

This is the first song I've tabbed, it's such a good tune I had to give it a

go. Have mostly watched her play live and just listened to the song to

create this so I doubt it's perfect but I think most of it's correct. The

lyrics I've included are more like markers, they don't perfectly

coincide with the tab.

 create this so I doubt it's perfect but I think most of it's correct. The
