This is my girlfriend's favourite song (not to mention favourite band)so I thought I'd learn it to make me look sexy and make her happy haha. It's a fairly simple song once you get the strumming pattern down. It helps to play along with the music. This song is probably my favourite from Turin Brakes as well and since no one had tabbed it I thought I'd give it a shot. Love you Rhea, this one's for you bazebey. h - hammer on p - pull off \\ - slide down // - slide up b - bend ~~ - vibrato - natural harmonic * - let ring Tips: Try and stress on the notes played on the G String, they really carry the tune...
