------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beating Heart - Ellie Goulding ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: JI09 Tuning: Standard (Capo 5th Fret) I based this off the acoustic version of the song that is on Youtube. It sounds right to me but any corrections are welcome :) Hope you enjoy it, it's definitely a great song!! During the verses it is all picked however in the chorus it is all strumming, again listen to the song to get the strumming pattern. Another thing to note is that where Ellie starts singing 'Here's hoping we collide' in the bridge you should palm mute the strings when playing. The picking is something like what is below, obviously the root note for the F will be the low E string but for the C it will be the A string so bare that in mind, but play around with it and see what sounds good for you :) e|----------------| B|--------X---X---| << Rough idea of finger picking in verses G|--------X-------| and in the bridge.
