Tabbed by: Tomsus4
A lovely song which a lovely person asked me to tab out
Tuning: Ben Cooper of RF plays this half a step down with a capo on fifth. Personally, I
prefer standard tuning
with a capo on fourth. All down to preference though.
For the record, when I say F#/Dsus2, I mean this:
e:0
B:3
G:2
D:0
A:0
E:2
And F#/Dsus4 is this:
e:3
B:3
G:2
D:0
A:0
E:2
During the riff, however, it sounds better and truer to the song to not play the two
higher strings. They are
played, however, in the instrumental sections every two verses.
