Biography:
Belle and Sebastian is a band from Glasgow. Led by guitarist/vocalist Stuart Murdoch, the seven-piece band has an intimate, majestic sound that is equal parts folk-rock and '60s pop. Murdoch has a gift not only for whimsy and surrealism, but also for odd, unsettling lyrical detail which keeps the songs grounded in a tangible reality.
Based in Glasgow, Scotland, Belle and Sebastian released their first two albums in 1996: Tigermilk, recorded over three days

COME ON SISTER
by Belle & Sebastian
from the album 'Write About Love'
tabbed by drew ([email protected])
lots of catchy synth in this song. the chords i've written out try to
follow both the bass and the melody, but in some places it's a toss up
whether you want that or not. in either case, i've made it as detailed
as i can. as such, it's completely up to you. :)
as for the "if you touch me you can never go back" part, it's tricky.
i hear a C bass all the way through with only the synth funking it up.
you might have luck with an Fmaj7 if you're really not into my attempt.
enjoy though, i couldn't believe there wasn't a tab for this amazing
song already. super-cute.
