Halcyon - The Paper Kites
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Bryn Romero
E-mail: romero.bryn@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Original Key: D
*NOTE: I play the start of the chorus like this:
A D A
e|----0-----2-----5----|
B|----2-----3-----2----|
G|----2-----2-----2----|
D|----2-----0-----2----|
A|---------------------|
E|---------------------|
But I realized that some people don't like unnecessary barre chords, so I
wrote the chords down just as A-D-A. If you are comfortable with barring, I
find the song sounds better with the high A note.
Intro/End of Chorus:
D A Bm
e|----10-----9-----7----------7-----5-----2----|
B|----7------7-----7----------7-----2-----3----|
G|----7------7-----7----------7-----2-----4----|
D|----0------0-----0----------0-----2-----4----|
A|----------------------------------------2----|
E|----------------------------------------2----|
