Celestine - Spector
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Freddie Macauley
Email: fmacauley2@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Lead:
This might not sound perfect, as I don't think all of it is played on guitar, as I
haven't seen a live video where the guitarist plays this, however it's good enough :)
Intro:
e|--------------| e|----------------|
B|-14--12----12-| B|-14--12--14--12-|
G|--------13----| G|----------------|
D|--------------| x 12 D|----------------| x 4
A|--------------| A|----------------|
E|--------------| E|----------------|
Verse:
This is played after 'is at an all time low'
e|------------|
B|------------|
G|-14--12--14-|
D|------------|
A|------------|
E|------------|
This starts on the 'hear' of 'then I hear your voice and...'
e|-----------------|
B|-14--12----12----|
G|--------13----13-|
D|-----------------| X 6
A|-----------------|
E|-----------------|
Finally to end the verse
e|----------------------------|
B|-14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14b16-|
G|----------------------------|
D|----------------------------|
A|----------------------------|
E|----------------------------|
The chorus is the same as the intro.
The second verse is the same but this is played before and after the B|-14--12--14-|
e|-12--10--12-|
B|------------|
G|------------|
D|------------|
A|------------|
E|------------|
The chorus/intro is then repeated twice, before the 'If I could step back in time...'
where the lead plays nothing
The chorus/intro is then repeated until the end of the song (but obviously nothing is
played during the line 'but I only ever did what I thought was right').
