Send corrections/notes/large amounts of cash to cadac1234@gmail.com
Note: I'm tabbing this mostly from memory, so there's probably going to be some wrong
parts...keep in mind that Snow Patrol, while talented, are not the most accomplished
musicians, so I try to keep it simple and playable.
Capo on 6th fret, move it to suit vocals.
