                             NOWHERE FAST - The Smiths
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: emilym80
E-mail: emilym80@hotmail.com

Tuning: F# or capo on 2nd.
From the album "Meat is Murder".
Tab relative to capo, not nut.
There are 2 guitars on this track (I think) so I tried to combine
both parts as much as possible.
The tab can be pretty much followed as is but there are some parts that 
repeat or have variations.
*denotes a slow bend of the trem arm, if you have one.

I've only tabbed the chords but Johnny scuffs a lot between them,
so add that in if you want.
