The 1975 - Sex
Acoustic Guitar Tab for this version of the song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9eftz0Hug8
To play along with the video you will have to tune up every string by a fraction
Capo 6
The best way to play this song is to finger pick the chords and fiddle around with the
extra notes I have added (eg. hammering and pulling them off). In the video he hits the
strings on beats 2 and 4 of every bar.

And this is how it starts
F G
You take your shoes off in the back of my van
C
My shirt looks so good
F G
When it's just hanging off your back
C
She said use your hands and my spare time
G Am7
We've got one thing in common it's this tongue of mine
F G
She said she's got a boyfriend anyway
C
There's only minutes before I drop you off
F
And all we seem to do it talk about sex

Or could I easily fill his shoes

You say no

You say no
