This Is The Thing Tab

Album: It was a seperate release from what the album i bought from itunes
Tuning: DADGBD (dropping High E to D isn't really necassary as you don't even need to
that string, just adds a nice sound)
 
Intro: Song fades in, so you could just sart from the chord before he sings, but i've
my best to get the whole fade in bit

  "i don't know.."...."different"    "it's geting.."   "and i don't know if you"
 
For the bit where he sings "the things that keep me alive keep me alone" it's this
call it a chorus)

D|--9999-------\--5555---------/-----9999-------\----5555-------000-----------------------------------|
 
   "the things.."   keep me alone"     "they're things.."       "keep me alone"
 
Right so that's the bits, i don;t think it changes much through the song, but even if it
and i havn't tabbed it, you can work it out from this. I got this by listening and
video, so should be good, nice song have fun |playin it. Email me at
if you have any questions or even corrections.
 
thanks
