                             Cain Said To Abel - Bloc Party
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Tabbed by: Radiall
Email: orrinsf@msn.com
 
Tuning: Standard
 
Not 100 % sure about the latter part of the solo and the arrangement for the verses. I
put it as one guitar, since it is also playing the same riff in the intro, but it might
two guitars playing it. Any comments are welcome.
 
UPDATE 3/28/07:
I updated Guitar 1 in the verses. Thanks goes to The_alchemist for pointing out my mistake.

Thanks for the tip, I think that's what I might have meant to put, I'll check it when I get home and can grab my guitar to check. I'll update it and give you credit if I messed up.
