guitar like the other tab http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwsHoKY8DHo

Guitar 1:

Intro:

e|-11-11--11-11-11-14-14-11-11-11-11-16-16-11-16/18-18-18-18-16--|
B|-12-12---------------------------------------------------------|
G|-11------------------------------------------------------------|

B|-12-12-12-12-12-14-12----14-12---12-12-12-12-------------------|
G|-13-13----------------13------13-13----------13-13-13-13-------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|

All of this x2

Verse 1:

Played and quickly muted, listen to the song you'll get it, there's also the occasional 
up,down,up, normally before movement between chords
   B    E
e|-11----7---|
B|-12----9---|
G|-11----9---|
D|-----------|
A|-----------|
E|-----------|

B
Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
B
Or knackered Converse
B
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
E
But all of that's what the point is not
                                E
The point's that there ain't no romance around there
B
And there's the truth that they can't see
B
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me
B      E
And if you could only see them, then you would agree
E
Agree that there ain't no romance around there


Chorus:

e|-4--4-2-------4-2-----4-2----------------------------------------------|

D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse 2:

The same as Verse 1

B
And over there there's broken bones
B
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones
E
  And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes
                     E
To see it's a little different around here
B
Don't get me wrong, oh there's boys in bands
B
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands
E
And just cause he's had a coupla cans
                          E
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead

Chorus:

The same as the previous one but played twice.

Verse 3:

The same as the other two verses

B
Well over there there's friends of mine
B
What can I say, I've known 'em for a long long time
E
And yeah they might overstep the line
                       E               B
But I just cannot get angry in the same way
B
Not in the same way
                E
Not in the same way
             E
Oh no, oh no no
