This is my fav Stereophonics song!(at the moment--it changes everyday!) This is a
fantastic song! (Just wanna say
Kelly looks really really H.O.T in this vid--and evry vid and everyday!!) xxx
Anywayz this song is 100% right!!(I know this because this is how I play it-and
I got it from the book)
It sayz that only the acoustic has capo 1st fret but you can still play the
elecrtic parts with the capo on 1st fret but to me it sounds better with
out(well for this version it dus anyway)
Drum fade in

In the chorus a third guitar plays this in the back round which you can hear quite
clearly

but this is how Kelly plays it (its quite easy to get the timing cos its not very
hard to play so dont worry if you cant hear it just go wth the flow of the song)

Piano solo/instrumental
just play the intro throughout the instrumental or you can play i this way. Its
exactly the same tune it just makes it flow more from the solo to the bridge/
pre chorus.

Its up to you how
you play it but
thats how i play it,
its alot easier and
fluent this way. And when you..

D|----5-------------|--5---3-1-----E (when kelly starts singing)
A|------3---6---3---|----------3-1-A
E|--4-----4---------|4---4---------T
When the chorus come in rather than playing the normal chorus' kelly plays this
instead, but if yopu hav a bit of trouble with this then just improvise (or play
it the same as the other chorus') whatever!
