Red Rabbits The Shins
This tab is only about 95% complete because I couldn't figure out a couple of the
on two chords quite (find the ??s, win a prize!). But this should more than get you started
a very simple song.
I figured it out on an acoustic guitar and keyed it to match the CD. I did it with a
on the first fret to play the whole thing using simpler open chords. For beginners, this
the chord name used ONLY represents the chord shape. So when you play a G with capo,
actually playing Ab/G#, C=C#, etc.
The open chords I used:
G = 320001
C = x32010
F = 113211 (or xx3211 if you don't want to barre it)
Em= 022000
Am= x02210
D = x00232
Any help with the parts I missed or if you'd just like to share how lame I am for
them can be sent to kevtp28@hotmail.com
Cheers

CHORUS:
[C]I c[G]an?t go into this no m[F]ore

?? D C
So we can?t make it easy on you
CHORUS #2
[C]Und[G]aunted, you bathe in hollow c[F]ries
