This tab is only about 95% complete because I couldn't figure out a couple of the
on two chords quite (find the ??s, win a prize!). But this should more than get you started
a very simple song.
I figured it out on an acoustic guitar and keyed it to match the CD. I did it with a
on the first fret to play the whole thing using simpler open chords. For beginners, this
the chord name used ONLY represents the chord shape. So when you play a G with capo,
actually playing Ab/G#, C=C#, etc.
The open chords I used:
G = 320001
C = x32010
F = 113211 (or xx3211 if you don't want to barre it)
Em= 022000
Am= x02210
D = x00232
Any help with the parts I missed or if you'd just like to share how lame I am for
them can be sent to kevtp28@hotmail.com

Bah, I effed up the chord shape for the F chord. Shoulda been 133211
(Chords relative to capo on 1st fret) - Bb where your question marks are and where james sings "give the dark side a try" its Bb then G.. but good tab ill rate it good.
Thanks adio. I have a couple of people e-mail with the fixes, particuarly that pesky Bb that I couldn't quite hear when I was figuing it out.
Much appreciated, you and everyone.
