Great tab! 5* But you can play around with the [A]-Chord. You can play variations and patterns combining [A], [Asus2] and [Asus4]. Travis do that as well. And I personally prefer playing the G/F# not 2-x-0-0-3-3 but 2-x-0-2-3-3.

Wonderful chord

Great Tab, thanks! But at "sunny days, where have you gone" he definitely plays Asus4, look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WjBpErhw-Q 2:12! Does work with the A though, so thanks again!
