Biography:
The Delgados were a Scottish indie rock band who formed in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire in 1994 after friends Alun Woodward (vocals/guitar), Stewart Henderson (bass) and Paul Savage (drums) were forcibly ejected from the band Bubblegum. Joined by Paul's then-girlfriend Emma Pollock (vocals/guitar), the band chose to name themselves after Tour de France winning cyclist Pedro Delgado. They split in April 2005, with Emma signing a solo deal with 4AD shortly afterwards.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I haven't tabbed out the little picked intro but that's fairly easy to suss and I
done the outro either which is more more ad libbed so this is the main body of the song
acoustic.
The strumming is fairly straightforward and I tend to use barre chords for all but the
and Em.
Enjoy.....
