Colours In Waves

Tabbed by: Manu
Email: *
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

       Knowing that the time is past
       Em7

       Em               G
       These colours before my eyes

       I'll be forever colour blind
