-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Poppy
Email: poppy.powers@me.com // Twitter: @poppy_powers
Tuning: Standard
BASS FACE: Optional
Disclaimer: It's 2am, and this is my second tab ever. Apologies if it's rubbish, feel
free to let me know what's wrong with it/correct it. This corresponds to the recorded
version of 'Forever', not a live version.
Haim are bloody brilliant, and Este's bass lines are awesome. So, enjoy! (and sorry if it's bad!)
