I couldnt find a 100% correct tab for the chords or the riffs in this great song, so heres my
attempt!!
Notes:
- You really need two guitars, one for the chords and one for the various riffs, but if
youre singing then you can leave the riffs out and concentrate on the chords.
- All the riffs have been tabbed out for a non-capoed guitar - this makes it clearer and
easier to understand - ive put a note above each riff just to remind readers.
- For those of you without a capo and/or limited upper-fret access (if youre using a
traditional acoustic, for example), there is a separate tab catering for this at the bottom
(the capoed version sounds so much better though).
- Ive tabbed out the riffs the way i play them - obviously you can change them by playing
the same notes on different strings etc, but theyre probably easiest to play in the form
ive put them in.

Theres an arpeggio played on the synth over the second Bm. Its quite tricky so if you cant
play it, just play the chords. Here it is in tab:

Repeat, and fade out over the second F. Then fade back in over the D, and stop just before
the pre-verse.

This tab is 100%, bro.
Danke sehr!
It's not a big thing but, I believe it sounds better to instead of the D/C# play a A/C#. Both sound good because the important thing there is the bass note. But still, I believe a A/C# is better. Otherwise than that a really good tab
