I found this is a good one for practicing repetitive chord sequences & changes and an easy one to crack once you get the lilting beat.
Listen to the Troggs version first and maybe try the Wet Wet Wet arrangement later which I think is in a different key.

D-----------Em------G-------A------D--- Em--G--A
I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes

D-----------Em--------------G------A-------D---- Em--G--A
Well, love is all around me, and so the feeling grows

D--------------Em---G-------A----------D--- Em--G--A
Its written on the wind, its everywhere I go

D------------Em-------G--------------A-----D--- Em--G--A
So if you really love me, come on and let it show

Chorus

G---------------------------Em
You know I really love you, I always will

G---------------------D
My mind's made up by the way that I feel

G-------------------E
There's no beginning, there'll be no end

G---------------------A
Cos on my love you can depend

I see your face before me as I lay on my bed
I kinda get to thinking of all the things you said
You gave you promise to me and I gave mine to you
I need someone beside me in everything I do

Chorus repeat

It's written on the wind, its everywhere I go
So if you really love me, come on and let it show
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it show
(fade out)

Good luck with this

All the best

Nice one - works well if you arpeggiate the chords too instead of just strumming

Not sure about the last G A chord change - the G doesn't sound right - maybe E or Em 'Cos on my love etc.'

I have seen the same tab but with A7 in the main D - Em - G - A - replaces the A.

I think we have a lesson on this one by promedics.

Yup, quite sure we have:

Strangely enough, I just noticed 'Riff B' is wrong there. No clue how that happened. Should have been:

D|-2p0-----------|
A|-------2-----0--|
E|-----------3-----|

Hey, thanks guy's I'll try and post some more when I've time. Sorry that some of the chord changes didn't appear over the right words but this typing lark is tricky!

Cheers for now

REM covered this song on their MTV Unplugged back in 1991. Thanks for posting. :D
