Starlight acoustic tab / song by Muse / tab by Arcelle
Okay, fingerstyle tab based off of the keyboard part. See any other tab of this for
basic chords, and feel free to
substitute them for the silly jazz chords in the bridge if need be. :V The strumming
style in the verse/chorus is
a bit hard to tab, but just feel it out and you'll get it. Also this is in Eb tuning,
but it sounds fine in standard.
Chords are named as the shapes would be in standard tuning.

The ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

And I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away
Never fade away

You in my arms
