Tabbed by: squizz

Tuning:Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
(the recording is flattened. god knows why? it sounds the same in
standard tuning, apart from you can't play along with the track.)
that finger pattern is a stretch. well it is for me.
NB: spacing (-) does not indicate timing.
the previous tab is correct, i just finished it off. :D
v = downstroke
^ = upstroke
eb|------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---5------5-------5-------5-------5------5------5-----5-----|
Gb|----4------4-------4-------4-------4------4------4-----4----|
Db|-----2------2-------2-------2-------2------2------2-----2---|
Ab|-4------4-------2-------2-------0-------0-------------------|
Eb|-----------------------------------------------2-----2------|
(until "...your heart is still in mine.")
you can also play it like this, although it makes it harder to
form the first chord of the chorus:
eb|---0-------0--------0--------0--------0-------0------0------0----|
Bb|----0-------0--------0--------0--------0-------0------0------0---|
Gb|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|-----2-------2---------2--------2-------2-------2------2------2--|
Ab|--4------4--------2--------2--------0-------0--------------------|
Eb|---------------------------------------------------2------2------|
"I want to believe..."
v ^ v v v ...etc. v v ..etc
eb|-----------------------------------------------------|
Bb|-5-5-5---5-5----------5-5----------------------------|
Gb|-4-4-4---4-4----------4-4----------------------------|
Db|-2-2-2---2-2----------2-2----------------------------|
Ab|-4-4-4---4-4----------4-4----------------------------|
Eb|----------------------0-0----------------------------| x2
(quick) "your song..."
(repeat downstroking until "...your song." then change.)
(its okay if you hit the top string here as well, cos the 5 on the
Bb is the same note.)
"on sunday..."
