by Editors (off the album "The Back Room", 2005) Standard Tuning (both guitars) Update 18/07/07: Verse/Refrain was wrong. The other tab is nearly right for this, but watching some live videos.. it's slightly different. This is my version of it. Enjoy :) _____________________________________________________________________________ 0:00 VERSE _____________________________________________________________________________ The first verse has a very acoustic feel; try and hear the rhythm of Tom's guitar for this section. The notes on the G strings aren't loudly played. Tom
