This Tab was created by a boy called Jake, who spent along time on this (his first
tab). Transcribing isn’t my strong point.
- this is almost 100% correct Except for some of the timings in verse 2 and
the end chord in each phase. I am aware the sequence (F# A E F#) doesn’t end on F#
but my limited music ability can’t find a better note. If someone can correct it,
email me (mrsmiley@hotmail.com) and I will be very grateful for your contributions.
But this structure does work quite well.
- First prize for this boy, for transcribing this song first.
