Artist: Kind of Like Spitting
Song: March 25, 1998
Tabber: Andrew Biles
This is my favourite Kind of Like Spitting song so it had to be done at some point.
It be found on both the self-titled EP and album and also a version of a ecording
done at Fireside Bowl in 2002.
At first I thought the capo was on fret four, however, spending a long time trying
to out the last chord, involving both my guitar teacher and his wife, we decided
to try it at different position and finally ended up with the chords sounding correct.

lyrics, by this I mean just change the chord each time you reach this point (following the above pattern).

I realise that the chords are actually sharpened versions of those chords due to the but
they're just the shapes which I personally find easier to follow. If you have any
questions, andrewbiles@hotmail.com - e-mail me, I haven't used msn in due to people
asking about tabs and then weeks later asking who I was, it annoyed me.
