Elbow: Station Approach
Tabbed by: Bas Vos
Guitar-wise, this song is mainly a repetition of riff 1 shown below.
Standard tuning
Riff 1:
|
E|----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
G|-------0---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|-------0---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
D|----------------------------------------|---------3--3--5--5--5--5--5--5--5--5---|
A|---------3--3--5--5--5--5--5--5--5--5---|-0h2h3----------------------------------|
D|-0h2h3----------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
..and repeat..
from some point (1.13 min), something like this is repeatedly played over
the piano chords:

Riff 2:
E|-8--8--10--------------------|--13--13--15s\--------------------|
B|-8--8--10--------------------|--13--13--------------------------|
G|-9--9--10--------------------|--14--14--------------------------|
D|-----------------------------|----------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------|----------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------|----------------------------------|
Towards the end of the song, I think they play this chord (barred G):
E|-3--|
B|-3--|
G|-4--|
D|-5--|
A|-5--|
D|-3--|
over and over.
Listen to the recording for the strumming pattern on this chord;
I think it shifts the accents from the lower to the higher strings
every now and then.
Please feel free to make your own additions/corrections.
Have fun,
Bas
