Tabbed by Drew B. (Dreb1275)

This is a great song and definately one of the Kooks best singles.  Enjoy!

Tune up a little bit on every string. For example make the E string between E and F

A# (x1333x@1)                     Dm (xx0231@1)And I gave her so very much
                          G (320003@1)And I never never give enough
                      Gm7         C (x32010@1)        D7 (xx0212@1)  A# (x1333x@1)This love is turning me, into something that I'm not
                           Dm (xx0231@1)And I've got my problems, yes
                        G (320003@1)Oh I've got to be the best
                       Gm7        C (x32010@1)   D7 (xx0212@1)Oh this jealousy is turning me upside down

A# (x1333x@1)     C (x32010@1)      F (133211@1)I look out, my window

This should be the whole song.  I recommend listening to how he plays it to really get a 
for it, especially the way he arpegiates the chords in the beggining.
