So many. Flowers in the WIndow was my favourite for a long long time. My old guitar pal and me used to do it at open mic nights; you can do it nicely with two acoustics if you put a capo on the 5th fret of one, for a bit of tonal difference

Probably at the minute its My Eyes.

Oh and I love pissing off the neighbours with the solo to All I want to do is Rock, and crankin up the old feedback

Coincidentaly - for some reason my tabs for more than us/tied to the 90's and others are still floating around t'internet! I did them back in 98/99 and they seem to be on every guitar page! ha ah!

Can't stop playing Closer right now....easy and sounds great when done correctly.

I do cheat a little and keep the capo on the fourth fret though...haven't been singing enough lately to sing comfortably when it's on the 5th fret where it belongs...will get there eventually.

Sing.

I dont actually play or own a guitar but... I went round my friends house the other night, he owns a gutiar and by the end of the evening I could actually play sing!!!

It was a bit broken up in the middle but I could get the general notes and rhythms right. I was quite impressed. I'm quite tempted to get a guitar in the future.

Try www.ultimateguitar.com and search for Travis. Lots TBWNN tabs on there plus others from previous albums.

And my fave to play at the mo is My Eyes!

Im very keen on playing "20" on 3rd capo at mo, also My Eyes and Sing are personal faves of mine. Others include By My Baby, Nobody Does It Better, Beautiful, Where Is The Love, AIWDIR, More Than Us!

I can play all Travis songs quite well, my voice also seems to go well with the songs, so I enjoy playing more!! Ha ha
