GIG LIFE
by the world is a beautiful place and i am no longer afraid to die
from the album 'whenever, if ever'

tabbed by drew (iamdrew@gmail.com)

this is a great song.  without a doubt it's the bass that makes it
so i've tried to make the chords follow the bassline somewhere.  i've
tried to choose voicings that make it sound best on acoustic.  as ever,
your milage may vary but

also, i've only written up the chords for the parts with words.  the
interlude jams quite a bit in the key of e - the chords shouldn't be
too tricky to pick out.

                        Some bits sound quite off. The guitarist told me it was capo on 2  aswell, and with the videos of thom playing it he has that capo.
