Attempt to capture chords with intro tab for a new Passenger song.
He played it in Brussels on 03 September 2022 tentatively titled "This Wild Love":
UPDATE: on 09 June 2024 he released a new demo of the song with the title changed to just "Wild Love"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXqivAKa5Sk
I have added an updated version to reflect the new demo and I left the original version at
the end.
Capo 5 to approximate the 2024 demo version (note: he is also tuned to 448 instead of 440 Hz for the demo)
The tab for the intro section may not be exactly what he plays in the demo, but it should be very close.
The C/B is just a walkup on the A string from the Am7 to the C. The C chords in parentheses are the
beginning chord for the instrumental section that follows.
For the C2* he plays the root note, then hammers on from 0 to 2 on the D string (C2 to C)
Note that in the demo version, he also included an outro section with lyrics from Arsenal's
"North London Forever" chant that came from "The Angel" by Louis Dunford.
I have not included those lyrics here.
