Tuning: standard
Yo. This is a tab of the live acoustic version of this killer song – performed on the
aussie talk show ‘the panel’. The tab was basically deduced from watching that footage on
youtube. Check it out to get the rhythm.
Intro: Acoustic guitar plays this while the bass does the main riff (which is some kind
of C, D#, F arrangement)
(strum 16th notes up and down for 4 bars but mute the first down stroke of every bar)
