Guitarist - Pete Holstrom (Keyboards - Zia McCabe)
Tuning - Standard
Notes;
This is a kick ass Dandy's song which is just drippin with cool. A refreshingly
upbeat love-; I mean...like song! The guitar lines are as close to the way I play
it as possible. Just listen to the cd to get the rhythm but it's basically all
there. Notice the change of rhythm on the E chord at the end of the four bar chord
progression. Also watch out for the intro; the B chord enters on the anacrusis,
that is the quaver (or eighth note) before the first bar but when the progression
repeats it enters right on the first beat. The intro is doubled by a steel string
acoustic but one guitar sounds ok. Happy strumming.
This tab is intended to be viewed in a monospaced type face such as Courier or MS

Note, when this part is played just before the bridge, where Taylor-Taylor
sings "I'm getting wise and I'm feeling so Bohemian like you..." reverse all the
9th fret notes on the B string from the asterix onwards to 10 frets and the 10th
frets to 9th frets. Listen closely to pick it.

*Note; I tend to play the E like this to give it a bit more kick in this section
without being entirely sure whether it is actually played here or back at the
second fret. It sounds fine though.
