Artist: Islands
Track: Here Here
Album: Ski Mask
(arranged for acoustic guitar)
As I have it here, you'll need to tune your guitar down a half-step if you want to play
along with the recording. I prefer to tune mine down a full step and play it with capo 1.
Chords listed in this song are relative to the tuning.
Note that I did NOT tab the introductory solo, and rather just used the same chordal
arrangement as in the chorus to open the song. To get the timing of it, play it with
the chorus ("Here, here...") a few times; the chord progression follows the vocals
pretty naturally.
My preferences for a few atypical chords:
Em/G: 3x2000
Em7/G: 3x0000
Cadd2: 032030
Fmaj7: 103210

Warm your weary heart

Rest your troubled mind

The world is un-kind

Feel it in your lungs
