Leaving Blues Chords & Tabs
This is the correct tab for Bombay Bicycle Club's Leaving Blue.
The song is played in standard (EADGBe) and the whole thing is finger picked on an
acoustic guitar.
Capo is on the 4th fret and the song has been tabbed from the capo and the chords are
worked out without the capo so just play the shapes as if the capo is the nut.
* Notes are raked (played really quick one after the other so they overlap)
