Tabber: Will Sharp
Tuning: Drop D (EBGDAD)

Ok, this is a complete tab for sway, an excellent song. Im positive this is 100%
cos i spent ages figuring it out (like all my tabs), specially the electronic intro bit!
The song uses 2 guitars, but a 3rd is needed for some of the bits. I havent labelled a
Guitar 3 but the area where it would b needed would be for the INTRO OVERLAY, PRE-CHORUS,
and ENDING - you'll figure out why.
JUST FOLLOW THE TAB AS IT GOES (ie down), PAY ATTENTION TO THE BITS THAT ARE REPEATED.
. = Play note/chord and mute immediately after.
DELAY = is an important effect in this song as it creates the sounds for most of
the riffs ive tabbed. To get the right timed delay, listen to the intro.
The delay speed is the same throughout this song so you only need 1 setting.
INTRO: This is what you hear, when i saw them at their last brixton date, they
played this an Lee did these huge slides before each note. You didnt
hear them sound but he played them, these sound about right:
A String: (3)/12
D String: (2)/9
G String: (2)/5
Anyway...thought you'd like to know...
Guitar 1: Delayed (2nd and 3rd repeats fade out slightly)
The brackets are notes that are heard quietly in the background.

OVERLAY: This is that cool electronic sound you hear after the 1st repeat of
Guitar 1's riff above. You need DELAY on for this.
Guitar 2: (could FINGER-PICK this as there won't be anything else 4 them to play
yet. They can only play it 3 times b4 going into the verse riff)
