Dust in the Wind Kansas
Here's the intro. It's a fingerpicking style called "Travis picking"
named
after Merle Travis who apparently came up with it first.
Essentially, it's just variations of C and Am, alternating between open,
1st fret and 3rd fret on the 2nd string with your index and pinky.

This is my first tabbing project, so sorry if there are any mistakes. This
was meant to be played on two guitars, so if their are a couple of places
that seem a little strange, try it with two guitars. I created this using
the Bucket o' Tab tabliture software, so if anybody wants the better looking
and easier to understand BOT version E-mail me and I'll send it to you. Enjoy!
