This is what i've worked out so far, but it's no way near complete.
The chords in bold i think are wrong.

It starts 15 secconds into the song and is missing the last few chords, but i'm sure we can put our heads/posts together to come up with a more accurate tab.

LAST PART OF INTRO

C....G....B....Em
C....D/F#



VERSE

Em..........................A..Fb5.................G.........D/F#
.....the old churchyard is where i faded

Em...............................A...F............G.............D/F#
.....she watched me while i fell unaided

Em.....................G..........................C..........................A
.....and in my time when god's army came and got me

..Em.............D/F#......G.........A (x3)
i could not find my honeycomb

Em....B..A#..A


GUITAR SOLO

G...D/F#...C...G.......D/F#...Em....Am.....F#...B

D/F#  F(b5)
e-2----1-
b-3----0-
g-2----2-
d-x----3-
a-x------
e-2------

Thanks for posting this, guys. I can't improve on what's already been done. Just enjoying playing it. Lovely song.

this is my take on the honeycomb intro. i figured it out and posted it last night in the wrong thread. i know it's virtually the same as the one guidzie posted, but it sounds to me like the bass notes are off. anyway, thanks for the rest of the song, much obliged.

Instead of ending on A I'd prefer Am, flows better with the Em on the next line, but maybe that's subjective.



The album keeps it as an A major (classic example of frank black's theory style). You can hear that major 3rd in the 2nd guitar.

okay

I'd change that D/F# into a regular D, that sounds good to me.

Other than that you've seen to have the major part pretty well done. Thanks!

bloody hell do i have to do everything?

the finger plucking is within the chords.
now surely that isn't hard to work out even for a novice like you

oh, and you better have one of these , because i like you
PixieSteve Posted - 08/06/2005 : 19:56:58

Oh let it linger
