Tuning: Standard


Here are the tabs to the second single off the band's 2004 album, Astronaut. Pretty easy too.
Listen to the album version to get a clear idea how Andy Taylor plays it in real time.
Otherwise, this is easy to strum to on acoustic as well.

Solo:
Work with effects to get the right sound, which should sound pretty close to this.

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--13\15--15--15--15----15--15--15--15--15----17--17--17--17--17------------|
G|--10\12--12--12--12----12--12--12--12--12----14--14--14--14--14------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--17--19--19----20--20--20--20--20----20--20--20----20----20--18----18-----|
G|--14--16--16----17--17--17--17--17----17--17--17----17----16--16----16-----|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--17(h)--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

For acoustic guitars, this arrangement of the above solo might work good too. Same
for the most part, just lower on the fretboard.

Verse One:
F#      C#sus/E           B            Esus (E)
Child don't you worry
It's enough you're growing up in such a hurry
Brings you down, the news they sell you
To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure

Chorus:
A           F       Dm2             Em7 (G)
But nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are

Csus                Dsus             Fsus
If you let me - I'll protect you - however I can

Am              G             Dsus2      G
You've got to believe it'll be alright in the end
You've got to believe it'll be alright again

Verse Two:
F#      C#sus/E           B            Esus (E)
Fighting because we're so close
There are times we punish those who we need the most
No we can't wait for a saviour
Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour

Chorus:
A           F       Dm2             Em7 (G)
And nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are

Csus                Dsus             Fsus
It would seem lonely - if you were the only - star in the night

Am              G             Dsus2      G
You've got to believe it'll be alright in the end
You've got to believe it'll be alright again

(Guitar Solo)

Final Chorus:
A           F       Dm2             Em7 (G)
And nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
So don't let go, now we've come this far

Csus                Dsus             Fsus
Hold my hand please, understand - we're never alone

Am              G             Dsus2      G (Am)
We've got to believe it'll be alright in the end (nobody knows)
You've got to believe it'll be alright my friend (nobody knows)
And yes we believe it'll be alright again
