Bluetones - Big Problem Chords & Tabs

Artist :    The Bluetones
Song   :    Big Problem
Album  :    ...Luxembourg

Tabbed :    Jefferson Humber (Jordan Humber for the riff & fine polish)
Date   :    13-MAR-2006
Tuning :    EADGBe
 
Notes  :    Technically Em's should be played instead of Emaj, but I think Emaj sounds
better when I play it on my accoustic guitar.  I suspect on the record an E5 is in fact
played.

Riff

A -2-0-2-----4---4---------
E -----------2-0-2---------
