Tabs for "Frog Prince" by Keane. NOTE: * Innitially this tab was meant for personal use. It started as a mixture of elements from versions 4 and 5 with some additions of my own but I found the result to be different and enjoyable enough to share with the world. Please enjoy. * The optional strumming pattern I added is played throughout the entire song unless a chord is displayed with an asterisk. That's where it briefly changes to 1/8 downstrums. * The ending is actually played on piano but for accoustic purposes I thought it could be a nice melody to end the song with. It's not entirely accurate but it gets close and it's quite easy to play. * None of the tabs below are official.
