Artist: Metric
Song: Gimme Sympathy (acoustic version)

TUNING: (E B G D A E)


Hi guys, this is my first attempt to put together some tab, because I didn't want to tune my guitar up or down JUST to play this song when I'm out at a mate's house.

So this has been done as a "close enough" to the acoustic version, and I think it works really well. You'll just have to work out the rhythm yourself, but it's not too hard, I'll try do a vague label for the first part because I'm a bit too lazy to work out exactly what all the chords are called right at the moment.
