Colours In Waves by South ------------------------------------------------------------------- Colour In Waves - SOUTH ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Manu Email: manuguerin@hotmail.com My best mate and I elected this song "Song of 2004" (tied with Graham's Freaking Out). The tab shows which chord is played (-ish) by the acoustic guitar during the intro. The rest is the electric guitar part. The chords indicated above the lyrics are either those played by the acoustic guitar or implied chords. Enjoy! Tuning: standard INTRO (ac.gu.)
