Tabbed by: Jay

Tuning: Standard EADGBE
Brilliant new tune from the Foo's. Inspired me to do my first tab! I know I've put it as chords,
but the first minute or so of the song has picking parts which I have tabbed first. I've
put the chords for it at the bottom.
Hope you enjoy. Any comments or feedback welcome.

Reapeat this throughout the whole intro.
When the change comes in (when Dave sings, 'But it's alright'), play this:

Chorus
A Asus2 Em
Easy for you to say.......your heart has never been broken
C D
Your pride has never been stolen.....not yet, not yet
The chorus repeats again, with different lyrics obviously but the same chord structure.
At about 3mins 40secs in, the song goes back to the same picking part as the beginning.
And there we have it!
Play around with the chords a bit too. C and Em chords always sound nice with an add9 or
add11. I like to change the C chord to a Cmaj7add9.
Sounds complex, but it's just moving your index finger on the B string from a regular C
shape up two frets, leaving the other fingers where they are.
Have fun, hope this has been helpful.
