Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out Chords & Tabs

Title: Take Me Out
Artists: Franz Ferdinand
Transcribed by: Erin Cox

The Scotts finally give the world a band that doesn't include a bagpipe or
drinking insane amounts of alcohol being the focus of the lyrics. Anyway this
bands first single is transcribed here and is uncommonly reminiscent of Modest Mouse's "Float On." Enjoy!

Standard Tuning (EADGBE) in the key of E minor...

want the feel of the song to be.
