Okay, I really like this song - it's the version from the album
Half the world is watching me from 2000 although I don't think
it's very different from the version on the boring Frengers album.
 
I did this tab with an acoustic guitar and that's probably reflected
in the fingering in some of the chords but overall I'm fairly satisfied
with the result. You're welcome to comment email-wise.
 
Tuning: EADGBe
 
There are three guitars:
 
Guitar 1 is played with a capo on the 3rd fret,
Guitar 2 is played with a capo on the 3rd fret,
Guitar 3 is an acoustic with a capo on the 1st fret

Very nice. Very very nice. Though I do not like the structure that most songs use that give you the parts and then the structure of the song. I can't go along playing like that =(
