This is technically my first tab, so have a little patience and understanding :) I know
it’s an old–ish song and several tabs already exist, but it’s such an awesome song and
simply has to be tabbed correctly from top to bottom. The other tabs are not necessarily
incorrect, but some parts are missing or just need a bit of fine–tuning. This tab is
especially for the people that want the lyrics with and see how they fit into the song
for singing and so.
TUNING: CGCGGC
Capo: 5th Fret
Personally, I play this song with my 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th fingers on the bottom four
strings, so that my thumb is free on the top two strings (5th and 6th strings/G and C) to
play the bass notes and such. But whatever you’re comfortable with goes, I guess. Also,
slide the bottom note onto the next one.

The second part of the intro is basically the same as the first, just with some
“Ooooooh”’s added. If you want to sing this part, just harmonize with the notes being
played, it
sounds great! It’s easy to pick up if you listen to the track.

CHORUS

Once again, just strum these chords once on the word. The chorus is repeated twice and
then flows into the next part. On the second repeat of the chorus on the track, drums and
a violin are added. Just tap a rhythm on the side of your guitar if the single strumming
bores you.

There are two ways to play the outro. The first way is technically the correct way (as
it is on the track) and is played by two guitars, one strumming chords and the other
playing the bridge section. The other is the way Ben Howard plays it live, basically
playing both parts simultaneously (thanks Ryan Marshall):

If you want to see it played correctly with a nice tutorial, go watch it on Youtube at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMGUmB8ZvyE or visit Gareth Evans at
http://www.goliathguitartutorials.com/Ben_Howard.html#old_pine. It’s nice to see the tab
being played out in front of you, especially the bridge with the differing pull–offs. Enjoy!
