Tabbed by: Ben Gladdle (moose9377@hotmail.com)
This is a lovely little tune, and easily the best (in my opinion) song
on the single. One of my fave BBK songs already. The dodgiest part of
this dodgy tab is the F/E I'm pretty sure that's what it is but I'm
open to suggestions... particularly from those who can actually play the
guitar properly. :) It's obviously just chords, so you'll have to figure
out the strumming and picking patterns for yourself. And the words are my
best guess.
