Snowpatrol - Wow
Track2 of Final Straw
There are several overdubbed guitars, all with different levels
of distorion and EQ so you'll have to listen to the track to decide
how you want to sound. A smooth valve-type distortion is probably
best though. (snowpatrol probably use Vox and Orange amps - the
guitars are single-coil jobs though, I think).
All the rhythms are aproximate.

The rest of the song is based on the above riffs - its not difficult to work out.
The song then ends on D5 which sets up for the start of
Gleaming Auction (which I'm going away to work on now...)
Hope this is to your liking - I think it's all correct
- I'm only posting it because I think it's more accurate
than the current tab.
