Hi everyone.
 
Here's the tab for "Hold on to your friends" Of my favourite singer, Morrisey.
As you may see, i couldn't transcribe the main part, and the intro is very
basic and needs improvment too, but i guess that it's better than nothing :).
 
 
Intro :
 
There are tw guitars in the intro, an electric one and an accustic
one. The electic plays that :
 
 
E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G-|-2---4---5------0---4---5---------4---5------------------------------------|
D-|------------------------------3--------------------------------------------|
A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 
And the accustic plays that :
 
 
E-|-3--------5---------0------------------------------------------------------|
B-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 
 
and after that he stars to sing. Here are the chords, they sound
ok, but i could define one of them, and i called him C?. You can
post me the name of it. Anyway, here they are.
