Indian Summer Stereophonics
<i></i>The main part of this song is acoustic, but there are some lead guitar parts which I am
going to tab here for you.
/ = slide
//=slide and pick the note that you have slid to
Intro
Acoustic chords
A minor, Fmaj7, C major, G major
Lead guitar part- use a chorus effect if you have one and some distortion(sounds nice
with a slide/bottleneck but the other lead parts in the song do not require a slide so it
may be awkward for you to keep taking it on and off)
Let this note ring a bit\/

Verse 1
[Am]Everytime that I see [Fmaj7]her
[C]A lightning bolt fills the [G]room
[Am]The underbelly of Par[Fmaj7]is
[C]She sings her favourite tun[G]e
Verse 2
[Am]She'll drink you under[Fmaj7] the table
[C]She'll show you a trick or [G]two
[Am]And every that I left [Fmaj7]her
[C]I miss a thing she would do[G]
Pre-chorus
[Fmaj7]She was the one, for me[C]
[G]She opened my eyes, to se[Am]e
[Fmaj7]She was the one, for me[C]
Oh alright[G]
Lead part- clean tone

Chorus
For the lead part of this, you may want to either play the chords with a small bit of
distortion, or just arpeggiate the chords
[Fmaj7]It was a cold Septembe[C]r
[Am]Before the Indian Summer[G]
[Fmaj7]That's the thing I reme[C]mber
[Am]When she gave me her number[G]
[Fmaj7]Went from station to sta[C]tion
[Am]On a train across the nation[G]
[Fmaj7]And the rain of November[C]
[Am]That's the time that we ended[G]
Bridge
The lead is the same as the pre-chorus
[Fmaj7]She was the one, for me[C]
[Am]Oh alright[G]
Verse 3
The chords are the same as the other verses
Vodka with coca-cola
Cocaine tucked in her shoes
Cigarettes over coffee
Her halo slipped to a noose
I'm pretty sure that 3 guitars are playing this part, 1 guitar for the chord, 1 electric
with a clean tone and 1 electric with distorted sound, so just play whichever one you like
Clean lead
Play this through all of the chords

Distorted slide lead parts
These come in at various points throughout the verse, so just listen out for them, it's
not very hard to listen for them because they stand out with the distortion. Again use
the effects used for the intro.

Verse 4
Take the slow boat to China
You fly it right 'round the moon
She could take it or leave it
I knew it had to end soon
