This is one of my favourite Frames songs from their gorgeous album 
"For the Birds" and when I looked online there was no tab available, 
so the guitar player in me had to learn it the old fashioned way.  
For too long I have relied upon other people to tab songs that I 
want to play. Now it's high time I did it myself.  
I looked at live performances of Glen playing this song by himself.  
The song is a rather simple one but with a deeply beautiful melody that 
Glen sings with absolute conviction.  This tab is as close as I possibly 
can get to how Glen plays it.  If you have corrections of your own, feel
free to let me know.  Cheers & GRA MOR!

Asus4

This is one of my favourite Frames songs from their gorgeous album

"For the Birds" and when I looked online there was no tab available,

so the guitar player in me had to learn it the old fashioned way.

For too long I have relied upon other people to tab songs that I

want to play. Now it's high time I did it myself.

I looked at live performances of Glen playing this song by himself.

The song is a rather simple one but with a deeply beautiful melody that

Glen sings with absolute conviction. This tab is as close as I possibly

can get to how Glen plays it. If you have corrections of your own, feel

free to let me know. Cheers & GRA MOR!
