Broken Glass Syndrome by Halifax ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Broken Glass Syndrome - Halifax ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: bloodred16 Email: happytreefriends_firstblood@hotmail.com As I play it on one guitar. Feel free to add what you think the second guitar part is into the comments, and I'll update the tab! Also, if you have any ideas on guitar parts for the bit where I've written "Bass Interlude", or what the piano is then add it to the comments and I'll update the tab, I wasn't to sure! I love this song so I've done my best and written the lyrics in time with the music as best I could to try and make it easier! Hope you like!
