The Long Blondes - Giddy Stratospheres
From the album 'Someone to Drive You Home'
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
Chords Used:
[Abm]B - [-]79[466444]9877
Bbm - 688666
Dbm - x46654
Ebm - x68876
Dm - x57765
E - x79997
[Ab]Fm [-]- [466544]x8101098
Cm - x1517171615
At some parts in the verse, there's this really cool bass-like riff that I believed is
on guitar while the other guitarist plays really high chords. I'll call it 'Riff 1' in tab.
