Recommend Capo Fret 2

W/Capo : D/A/Bm/G
w/out capo: E/B/C#m/A

This is a brilliant composition by Axis Of Awesome, I thought I'd tab this version, 
it has more songs, and its also more challenging than the CD
version.

Note: There is a tricky change in chord structure after "save tonight".

Enjoy!
