Daughter - How
Album: Not To Disappear (2016)
 
Great song (and album), isn't it?
Listen to the song for timing and sliding for bass parts.

[Verse 1]
 
D          G
 Moving on
D           A      G
 Is moving in slow motion
D                G
 To keep the pain to a minimum
D             A    G
 Weightless, only wait for a fall

[Chorus]
 
Bm        F#m
 How long   must I wait for you?
Bm       A       G
 Undone   in the evening
Bm   F#m
 How,  must I wait for you
Bm         A        G
 To become  what I need?
 
    D                       G

[Verse 2]
 
D          G
 Holding on, souvenirs
D           A          G
 His words inked from birthdays
D          G
 Goodbye to our empty ruins
D                  A   G
 Yeah that's when I saw her
D      A   G
 Hold me back
D      A   G
 Hold me back
D      A   G
 All   I   am
D      A   G
 All   I   am

[Bridge]
 
Bm       F#m
 How long
Bm     A      G
 Before the last dance
Bm          F#m
 How come   He's the one
      Bm       A  G
 To let me down
Bm       F#m  A
 How come  they glow
Bm        A        G
 Different in the evening?
Bm       F#m  A
 How come they stare
Bm*       A*    G
 Distant into daylight?

perfect! and to such a fantastic song ;)

This tab works perfectly fine, but looking at how Elena performs it, she has the guitar in double drop D and plays the riff up at the 12th fret so that the bent E note is the 9th fret of the G string. She's always playing the bottom note on the 6th string including when playing the verse chords so there's more sliding up and down the neck instead of switching between strings.
