Tabs

HATFUL OF LOVE - The Kooks
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tempo: About 71 beats per minute
Tuning: Standard
Note:
This song has at least two guitar tracks in it. However, this tab is for one
guitar, so it includes parts of both. I've tried to stay true to the song as
much as possible because I really like the original song's guitar performances.
I've attempted to tab this song to the best of my ability, notating minute
differences between repeated parts where I hear them. However, since this is
more of a fun song than an exercise in precision, I wouldn't sweat the details!
The Kooks obviously didn't (listen to the beginning of Tick of Time to hear a
clip of this song, and them messing around), and it turned out great!

Note: Since there are two distinct guitar parts here, this section is more
interpretive to attempt to include both a rhythm and solo part.
