Band: Serafin Song Title: Things Fall Apart Album: No Push Collide Tab Author: Erik Furlanis 2kpix@libero.it Serafin is a cool british group; their formation is a classsical one, thy're in four, and the singer also plays guitar. in this song it isn't so clear that there are two guitars, they can be heard only in the intro. this one should be the first singol from their debut album, and it's a f***in' damn' cool song!!! ===== INTRO repeat 2 times ===== Am Em Am Em e----------------------------|------------------------------ B--------1-----1-------------|--------1-----1--------------- G----2-----2-----2------0----|----2-----2-----2------0------ D--2---2-----2-----2---------|--2---2-----2-----2----------- A---------------------2---2--|---------------------2---2---- E----------------------------|------------------------------ F Em (Dm) G e----------------------------|------------------------------ B----------------------------|------------------------------ G--------2-----2--------0----|-----------------------4------ D----3-----3-----3-----------|----0---3-0---3-0------------- A--3---3-----3-----3--2---2--|--0---0-----0-----0--5---5---- E----------------------------|------------------------------ ===== VERSE ===== same chords as intro, if you listen to the song it's easy; to make it easier you can also play full chords, or play an arpeggio by yourself...I think that covering a song doesn't means copy it!
