Chords
----------------------------------
from the b side of the 2014 single Walk Me to the Bridge
tab by James Glover (Sebadonut)
You will be strumming the chords F#m Bm D E throughout most of the song. I have tried to tab the way I strum
the chords which I think follows the flow of the rhythm.
[Intro]
Im not sure what instrument is playing the lead melody (synth, maybe) but here it is tabbed for guitar.
